Several sectors in the city witnessed power cuts for four to five hours today, causing inconvenience to residents, shopkeepers and office-goers.
In Sector 19, owners of showrooms and booths had to bear the brunt of a power cut around 11 am. The Sector 19-27 lights were non-functional, causing traffic snarls at the intersection. “I had just opened the shop when there was a power outage. What will an electric appliances shopkeeper do without electricity,” asked a Sector 19 shopkeeper.
