Kohima, April 2 (EMN): A high voltage cable snapped from a steel tubular pole near Niathu Garden on Saturday (April 1) evening in Kohima.
An official from the Power department informed Eastern Mirror on Sunday that the high voltage transmission line fell on the ground due to ‘rampant earth cutting’ near it.
