<p>As being concern over electric pole wire, roughly looking cables have not only caused the Kathmandu Valley view unpleasant but also has become a significant problem of frequent short-term circuits. When the storm and lightning strike, Kathmandu goes dark or power supply is obstructed for hours. Moreover, with naked wires running over the ground, the chances of accidents and casualties are also high. Most cities in the world have placed the electric wires underground precisely to avoid such accidents. </p>
