The Energy department has directed the Electricity Supply Companies (Escoms) in the state to put in place measures to ensure uninterrupted power supply during summer.
While power cuts during summer were expected, Escoms announced that there will be no load-shedding this summer, citing the interests of students facing SSLC and PUC exams.
The decision was taken at a meeting chaired by Bescom managing director Mahantesh Bilagi, who is also the chairperson of the power trading committee of all Escoms.
