At least three BJP MLAs from Lucknow have written to Uttar Pradesh Energy Minister A K Sharma, complaining about severe power cuts, low voltage, and transformer failures across their constituencies. Neeraj Bora, Rajeshwar Singh, and O P Srivastava cited mounting public anger during the intense summer heat. The ruling party legislators demanded immediate restoration of supply and a permanent policy solution to prevent recurring outages. The move has handed opposition Congress an opportunity to attack the state government, with state chief Ajay Rai alleging that people across Uttar Pradesh are spending sleepless nights due to the power crisis.
