Bengaluru to Face 7-Hour Power Cuts for BESCOM Maintenance
Imagine if the electricity in your neighborhood needed a check-up, like a car.
The Bengaluru Electricity Supply Company (BESCOM) is doing just that in many areas.
They will turn off the power for 7 hours on June 29 and 30 to fix things like wires and equipment.
This will help make sure everyone has electricity, especially during festivals and when it rains.
It's like a planned break to make everything work better and prevent bigger problems later.
You can prepare by charging your devices and storing water.
If you need help, you can contact them through WhatsApp or their helpline.
BESCOM announced a 7-hour power outage for maintenance in Bengaluru.
The outage affects over 100 areas across multiple zones.
Maintenance includes RMU servicing, cable replacement, and tree trimming.
Shutdown aims to strengthen the distribution network for continuous supply.
BESCOM launched WhatsApp helpline numbers for quick assistance.
