‘Studies get affected due to power cuts’

Saisri

My study is interrupted due to power cuts in the night. Four to five hours of power cut has become a daily affair. My computer doesn’t work and my mother gets worried as she can not run the mixie or any other home appliance.

Saisri,

student Power goes off for two hours every day. It would be better if they enforce scheduled cuts so that we can plan work accordingly. I tried dialling 155333, but the call is never answered.

K. Prabhakar,

welding shop owner We have 126 flats in the complex, most of them owned by senior citizens. With four to five hours of power cuts, we have difficulties with regard to water supply as well as elevator use. Till a few years ago, the complex had only five to six air-conditioning units. Almost all flats have AC units now. Even with optimum generation, how long can we go on with this kind of loads?

Kishore Peddi,

Committee member, Alladin Mansion Power cuts ranging from three to four hours have become routine after the airport was shifted from here.

The stock reply what we get from the sub-station would be that the feeders have tripped from SCADA.

Power cuts during the nights have become a real pain what with mosquitoes and heat taking their toll onpeople.

Apartments in the vicinity are the worst sufferers.

G. Janardhan Reddy,

Contractor
