Regarding urgent Corona Solutions Dear PM It will be very helpful for people if hospital staff and facility is encouraged out of hospital in mobile ambulance or cabs sending to most affected wards of cities to treat moderate patients. Hospital burden can be reduced. 2. A nation wide lockdown for 15 to 20 days is must sir when there are lakhs of cases per day as it would be disastrous for country.

There is need of change in design of street light poles. Why there shall be a junction box at the bottom. This juction box is invariably open. The terminals are broken and wires are directly twisted. The street vendors and hawkers take connection in night and e-rickshaws use for charging the batteries. Naked wires come in contact with pole and the poles become live. Many times people and animals die due to contact with live poles. This shall be included in the policy for standardization.

There are major incidents of fire and explosions in power plants. In my opinion, like Petroleum Industry, Electricity Industry shall have their own standard for every activity from procurement of equipment, installation and O&M based on prevailing various safety standards and other applicable laws of the land. It would help in standardization of operations with enhanced safety.
