• Public advised not to dry clothes on ropes tied between poles or pull metal wires along tracks due to high voltage.
• Stone-pelting can break insulators, causing wires to snap and spread electric current, leading to fatalities and train delays.
• Warnings issued against walking on tracks, flying kites near wires (especially with metallic string), and carrying metal objects.
• In emergencies, do not touch broken wires or electrocuted persons; immediately call helpline 139 or inform railway staff.
