The Story in Brief
The Electricity Board has announced a scheduled power shutdown on August 13 in parts of Chennai and Pallavaram for maintenance work, with supply expected to be restored by 2 pm, Times Now News reports.
Affected localities include K.K. Nagar, Arcot Road, Thiruvanmiyur, Avvai Nagar, and Pallavaram areas such as Bammel Main Road and Krishna Nagar. Residents have been advised to charge devices in advance and plan essential activities. The Board said power will return once work is completed.
The Indian Opinion
Planned maintenance is necessary, but the daytime cut from morning till 2 pm will hit many offices and homes in a city already struggling with summer heat. Some may blame authorities for poor timing, yet advance notice and a full list were issued. The real test is simple: will power be back by 2 pm as promised, or does maintenance routinely run over schedule?
