Delhiites have to face long power cuts, which have been scheduled for 20 and 21 March. Power discoms on Wednesday informed that they have scheduled maintenance work for their transformers, lines and other electrical installations.
Areas covered under Reliance-led BSES (Yamuna and Rajdhani) will be more affected by this shortage in supply, in comparison to areas that receive electricity from Tata Power Delhi Distribution Limited (TPDDL). In 70 areas that receive electricity from both the BSES discoms, power will be unavailable for approximately seven hours.
Meanwhile, in 39 areas receiving electricity from TPDDL, power cuts are expected to run up to a maximum of seven hours. According to Delhi Transco Limited, BYPL will go on planned maintenance between 10 am to 5 pm on 20 March. Similarly, load-shedding on the BRPL-run lines for 21 March, will occur for five to seven hours.
In TPDDL-run areas, residents will have to face major power cuts lasting for four to seven hours on 20 March. On 12 March, people living in areas where electricity is supplied by BSES discoms will face power cuts for a minimum of seven hours. In areas where BRPL supplies electricity, cuts on 21 March are expected to last between 10 am to 5 pm.
