Low voltage adds to summer woes in B’ngir

Balangir: Rise in mercury coupled with low electric voltage and water scarcity has thrown normal life out of gear in Balangir district. Amidst such unbearable heat, a sunstroke death was reported in the district on Friday. One Tashil Bag (52) of Lukapada died of sunstroke while he was returning home after taking bath in a pond. When asked, CDMO Dr R.N Tripathy said the cause of death can be ascertained after getting the postmortem report. This is the first sunstroke death in the district this year.
