Amid state government’s claims of seamless power supply, residents across Mohali are reeling under unscheduled power cuts for the past one week.
Complaints of outages without any prior information have been pouring in from various sectors, phases, Balongi, Nayagaon, Kansal and Dhakoli, Zirakpur, with cuts of up to two hours leaving Sectors 76 to 80 the worst-affected.
According to the Punjab State Power Corporation (PSPCL), surplus power is available for the district, so there are no scheduled outages. The downtime, however, was being caused by the power grids tripping due to overload and occasional cable failure in storms.
