Gurgaon faces Prolonged Power Cuts
The power crisis has been faced by the residents of Gurgaon frequently giving sleepless nights. This power cut issues were faced by the residents from nearly a week. SK Sachdeva, chief general manager, Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) reported saying that they are not finding a tough situation as the weather is not that hot. The Air conditioner power consumption has also been reduced and also frequent power cuts in certain part of the city is due to the heavy rain and he also added on saying that the power supply will be normal very soon. One of the residents of the city reported saying that their woes has been neglected by the power supply authority.
However DHBVN has not not taken up the power supply issue that seriously and they are seen blaming the local flatus caused due to heavy rains and the power cuts have been faced by the residents for nearly 8 hours. On behalf of this the power supply authority claims there is not much power shortage. Meanwhile the residents are worried about the frequent power cuts and and the increased fuel consumption by the generators which has been in usage of an alternative. The voltage fluctuations have turned situations from bad to worse since the time of monsoon rains. The Resident Welfare Association have approached the Gurgaon Power Department in co-ordination with the city residents but all these pains have served no purpose.
