    Raining and raining everywhere.It is summer calenderish but we too are sitting here in rain .Many places damage .Same in India.I think people can lessen damage to cut any branches near to the house before rain begins.Dont wait for this and that officers.Where electric poles are try to cut branches of tree Govt must seriously think in future electric wires to bring underneath instead of hanging over the head /trees..Danger can be reduced so.(Or deaths)

    You have to inform your Muncipality officials or panchayat in writing at an earliest. There's a strict order for them to listen the grievances of the public...hurry up...
