MSEDCL disconnects Jumbo facility’s power supply; PMC cuts water connection to power utility’s office

PUNE The Pune Municipal corporation (PMC) and Maharashtra state electricity distribution company limited (MSEDCL) were at loggerheads, after the power utility disconnected supply to the COEP Jumbo Covid facility and the Baner Covid hospital on Friday.

PMC officials then stopped water supply to MSEDCL’s offices and its residential colony.

After actions from both sides, the MSEDCL and PMC cited a misunderstanding as a reason for the extreme steps and tried to downplay the issue.
