Residents demand an action by the concerned authorities to remove the cables hanging precariously from electrical poles.
Residents added that we are moving towards making Mohali a smart city but in spite of bringing the matter to the notice of the concerned authorities nothing seems to have been done about dangling wires of cable TV.
