Cancellation of power shutdown

TIRUCHI: The Tamil Nadu Electricity Board in a press release on Wednesday said that the power shutdown announced in certain areas in the city limit on August 7 (Thursday) from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., owing to maintenance work in Tiruchi sub-station, has been cancelled.

There will be no power supply in the following areas on August 7 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. due to the work of shifting the electric posts following four-laning of the National Highway - 45.

The areas are: Mannarpuram Bypass Road, Khaja Nagar, Khaja Nagar Hut area and Jamal Mohamed College, a press release from the Tamil Nadu Electricity Board here said.

Members of Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam staged a demonstration at Samayapuram on Wednesday condemning frequent power cuts. The demonstration held in front of the Electricity Board office was headed by party union secretary Mohan.
