Re: Bangalore will face 6 hour power cut!!
The govt was supposed to start power cut from today.. but they didn't. Maybe coz of those blasts.

Re: Bangalore will face 6 hour power cut!!
We have an average of 1-2 hours of powercut everyday, depending on th area. Some areas are relieved of that trauma.

Re: Bangalore will face 6 hour power cut!!
Hey guys.. Himachal is jannat.. no power cuts.. not even once a month.. they will notify people one day before when they want to shut down electricity supply regarding repairs.. and man the rate of electricity is cheap too.. 70p upto 150 units.. >150 units is 90p.. i don't get more than Rs. 300 bill of two months.. even though I run my PC 18-20 hrs a day..

Re: Bangalore will face 6 hour power cut!!
Luckily I'm out of Bangalore for the next few days and we do have power here round the clock. Though no computer here but I got my mobile, so things are ok.

Re: Bangalore will face 6 hour power cut!!
Oh...powercuts everywhere.
Here in my place electricity goes off for atleast 7 hours.
5:30 to 9:15 in the morning, again from 1pm to 5pm, and sometimes 10 to 11:30 in the night. The timings are flexible.
