# BJP flags power cuts impact on TN households, industries 2026-08-17T14:48:25+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet BJP Tamil Nadu unit president Nainar Nagenthran on Monday urged Electricity Minister R. Nirmalkumar to address power cuts affecting households and industries across the state. Citing a newspaper report, Nagenthran said low voltage had damaged household appliances and caused financial burden, calling it an 'administrative failure' of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam-led government. The BJP leader criticised the government's 'lackadaisical attitude', noting that the problem persisted even after summer peak demand ended. Industrial units in several parts of Tamil Nadu were also hit by the interruptions, he added. The state government has not yet responded to the BJP's demand. The issue is expected to be raised in the assembly. ## Coverage - thehindu.com This story was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
