Daily unplanned power failure of two to three hours in the industrial belt of Pimpri and Chinchwad has disturbed work schedules as companies are not able to deliver their products on time.
Sandeep Belsare, president of the Small Scale Industries Association (SSIA) of Pimpri-Chinchwad, said, “At least one area in the industrial belt is affected due to power failure every day. In the last 15 days, most of the areas are facing unplanned power failure due to which two to three hours of the daily work of industrialists is getting affected. Sudden power failure also impacts loading of machinery and machines can also get damaged due to power fluctuation.”
“The Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) and Maharashtra State Electricity Transmission Company Limited (MSETCL) both are responsible for these power failures.
