NEW DELHI: The capital’s power distribution company BSES has said that the Supreme Court has restrained Delhi power utilities IPGCL, PPCL, and DTL from cutting off the power supply to it and ordered them to maintain the status quo till further orders.
The discom’s allocated quantum of power from the IPGCL and the PPCL is 845MW and this is essential for them to provide a continuous and reliable power supply, it said.
The BSES claimed that the judgment has prevented blackouts in the national capital during the festive season, thereby protecting the interests of around five million power consumers or around two crore residents of the south, east, west, and central Delhi.
