Bengaluru: The maintenance work being carried out by Bescom across the city to prepare for the coming monsoon and prevent feeder failures or transformer defaults, has left people badly inconvenienced as it is resulting in frequent power cuts.
A senior Bescom officer ,however, appeals to Bengalureans to tolerate the power interruptions which are likely only for a few days. “We have taken up the maintenance work well in advance of the monsoon as once the rains begin we have numerous issues relating to power failure and come under immense pressure from the public to resolve them immediately, which is not always possible. So this time, we want to make sure that maintenance is carried out and monitored well before the arrival of the monsoon,” he explained.
