Localities in Nagpur are facing terrible electricity power cuts and are grappling with situations surrounding it. These are especially occurring in localities like East, South and South west Nagpur.
The MSEDCL received numerous calls from evening. Technical issues and obstruction by felled trees are checked by MSEDCL. Incidents of trees and branches falling on overhead cables are reported to cause power disruptions in various areas of city.
The electricity supply in the wanjari Nagar area got disconnected around 4.30 Pm and we tried to contact MSEDCL but could not get through. The supply was finally restored around 9 pm. Bhalchandra Joshi said.
In the Manewada area, residents went without power supply since 4 pm were left struggling for almost 6 hours before the supply was restored.
Residents said although it was understood that the downpour would affect the electricity supply, their main concern was that the authorities were available to address their complaints.
