PCMC: Power Outages Scheduled for Bhosari and Dighi Areas by MSEDCL

Pimpri-Chinchwad, 8th June 2023: Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) has announced that regular power outages will be taking place every Thursday in the regions of Bhosari, Dighi, and nearby areas. These scheduled outages are necessary to facilitate crucial electricity feeder work and other maintenance activities conducted by MSETCL.
Today, yet another planned power outage is set to occur, and it will continue until 2 pm. Residents and businesses situated in Dighi, Bhosari, and the surrounding localities should anticipate being affected during this timeframe.
Moreover, a weekly off has been established for the MIDC area in Bhosari every Thursday. This decision ensures that commercial operations remain unaffected and unhampered by the power outages.
Several residents in the affected areas expressed their frustration as power outages occurred without prior notice or communication from the Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL). Ravi Patil, a resident, stated that neither he nor his neighbors received any notification regarding the planned outages. This lack of information caused significant inconvenience, especially for those working from home due to circumstances like the recent fire incidents in Viman Nagar.
Ravi Patil, who had made arrangements with a backup power supply, revealed that the backup could only sustain for a maximum of four hours. This limitation significantly impacted his ability to continue working effectively during the power outages.
Similarly, Rahul Dolare, a resident of Dighi, shared his concerns about the impact of the power outages on his work-from-home situation and Sunday classes. With the outage falling on Thursdays, Rahul found it impractical to take leave on that day, as it did not address the issue of the electricity disruption during his scheduled Sunday classes.
