Morena, MP, May 13 (UNI) Help would be sought from schoolchildren and godmen for realising electricity dues and stopping power theft in this district.

''Monks will issue a clarion call against such theft and urge people to pay up. Various schools will be approached twice a month and students urged to guide their guardians on these issues,'' Executive Engineer R K S Rathore, posted at the Madhya Pradesh Central Region Power Distribution Company's local office, told UNI.
