He met deceased's family, offering condolences and full support, and promised total safety around transformers across city. Pathak said that he directed the Lucknow Electricity Supply Administration (LESA) to ensure immediate compensation for the bereaved family. "No parent should suffer such a loss because of carelessness. This tragedy is a stark reminder of infrastructure negligence...there is a need for action and authorities should prioritise public safety before another innocent life is lost. I have directed the department of electrical safety to pay maximum compensation to Fahad's family," said Pathak. Following the incident, LESA filed an online application with the Directorate of Electrical Safety for compensation to be paid to the bereaved family. According to officials, after the completion of the directorate's inquiry, the family may be eligible to receive compensation ranging from Rs 5 to Rs 7.5 lakh under provisions for deaths caused by electrocution. Pathak also took serious note of safety lapses, calling the incident unacceptable. During his visit to the colony, Pathak announced a series of urgent safety and infrastructure upgrades in public interest. A protective wall will be constructed around the transformer, said deputy CM. Besides, local tubewell will be rebored for better water supply, all dangling/exposed electric wires in area will be properly arranged and every transformer in the colony will be fenced, with a city-wide inspection to follow, he added. "I will personally inspect transformers across the city in the days to come to ensure no other family faces such tragedy," said Pathak.
