As it rained misery in various parts of the city, with roads getting waterlogged and drain water overflowing into homes on Thursday evening, Bengalureans have been left peeved with power cuts.
While the power disruptions have become common for even the slightest rain in the city, they continued well into Friday, forcing many to take to social media and complain, tagging the Bescom. Many residents also complained about how unhelpful the helpline was.
“On Thursday, as soon as it started raining around 7.30 p.m., the power supply was cut. It was not restored till 10 p.m. I made repeated calls to 1912 to register my complaints. Despite multiple attempts, I received no response,” said Shravan K., a resident of Yelahanka.
