Frequent power cuts in Bengaluru peeve WFHers, students

BENGALURU: Unscheduled power cuts across the city are disrupting work from home routines and online classes, Bengalureans are complaining.

Professionals and students are taking to Twitter to vent their ire over the frequent outages. Several students say they’ve been facing issues while writing online exams and giving presentations.

“The government should ensure uninterrupted power supply during the pandemic. There has been no prior intimation from Bescom. Neither has it responded to complaints. It’s difficult to work because of power cuts and voltage fluctuation,” said Nancy Mathew, a resident of Lakshmi Road in Shantinagar, adding there was no power from 9.30am to 3pm on Wednesday.
