Bengaluru: Parts of the city experience scheduled power cuts on August 13; see list of affected areas here

Several neighbourhoods across Karnataka's capital Bengaluru are poised to experience temporary power disruptions on Sunday, August 13. The Bangalore Electricity Supply Company (BESCOM), responsible for the city's electricity distribution, has outlined a series of planned activities from August 12 to 26. These include addressing pending maintenance and repair tasks, facilitating road expansion, implementing underground drainage facility electrification, and advancing the Jalasiri 24*7 water supply project. Additionally, BESCOM is preparing for a power cut to facilitate work on the 11KV link line, aimed at segregating the load distribution between F-8 Agrahara and Malladihalli MUSS To Agrahara sectors.

As reported by BESCOM, the citywide power interruption is set to last for six hours, commencing at 10 am and concluding at 4 pm. Some specific localities may experience a shorter outage of four hours, spanning from 10 am to 2 pm. In a similar vein, certain areas might also face six-hour power cuts, with these measures projected to extend until the 24th to 26th of August.
