Greater Hyderabad’s electricity demand has reportedly crossed 4,000 megawatts. Feeder tripping, distribution transformer (DTR) problems and maintenance-related issues are among the reasons cited for supply interruptions.
TGSPDCL CMD Jitesh Patil had previously stated that there were no power cuts and that supply was restored whenever technical issues arose. However, IT employees say the situation on the ground contradicts these assurances.
They have urged electricity officials to strengthen infrastructure, resolve technical faults promptly and ensure uninterrupted power supply in Hyderabad, a major global IT hub.
