Indeed, it is a wonder that more people dont get electrocuted.  Actually, I 
suspect that many do, but it is seldom if ever reported.
 I feel sorry for the poor lineman who has to carry out repairs wearing only 
chappals and no protective gear or gloves, especially during the rains.  I 
still see the lineman pushing his bicycle with a bamboo ladder attached to 
repair street lights.  Since I live off the beaten path, when he comes to 
repair the street light near my house, he asks to borrow my bamboo ladder.
.
Especially in the rains, one sees sodden tree branches brushing against live 
electrical lines
sometimes resulting in sparks. Who do we blame ? The poor electrical linemen, 
his bosses or the politicians who control the pursestrings ?  One questions 
whether India will ever reach the status of a world power when for decades 
there are no improvements at the
local level.
