Thirumavalavan opposes plan to outsource reading of electricity meters

Legislator Thirumavalavan criticised the Tamil Nadu government's proposal to contract out electricity‑meter reading, saying the issue stems from a chronic shortage of staff. He called for the state to address vacant positions within the Tamil Nadu Power Distribution Company Limited by hiring internally rather than outsourcing the task, arguing that recruitment would resolve the operational gap.
