Customers have to jump over trench to use ATM

The public specially the senior citizens and ladies are finding entry into this  State Bank of India ATM near Secretariat to do a transaction or withdrawal of money at this ATM very difficult. The trench has been dug by the contractor to lay the pipelines but he has not provided a wooden plank to enable customers use their ATM.

The danger in case a senior citizen or ladies tries to jump to enter into this ATM is grave and could land them with broken limbs. 

The security guard has requested the contractor to provide a plank to which he replied that it was not their job. 

The SBI must take action against the Contractor for not providing a temporary  plank for their customers to use the ATM even as he has been undertaking work to lay pipelines.
