Power shutdowns announced in Dimapur and Kashmir for maintenance
The Story in Brief
The Power Department Nagaland has scheduled a temporary total shutdown of the 33/11kV Forest Substation in Dimapur on 3 and 4 November from 5:30am to 7:30am each day for urgent structural work, renovation and maintenance. The affected areas are Landmark Feeder, Khermahal Feeder and Notun Bosti Feeder. Executive Engineer Er Lhuvoyi requested cooperation from the public and said normal supply would be restored immediately after work each day.
Separately, the Kashmir Power Distribution Corporation Limited (KPDCL) has announced multiple shutdowns across the Kashmir division from 3 to 11 November for maintenance of 33 KV and 132 KV lines and substations. Affected areas include Baramulla, Shopian, Ganderbal, Budgam, Pahalgam and dozens of other towns and villages, with timings ranging from 9am to 3pm on specific dates. Power will be restored after completion of scheduled work each day.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All four outlets report planned power cuts as official press releases, with no criticism or framing differences. The two Nagaland outlets (nagalandtribune.in, nagalandpost.com) and morungexpress.com cover the same Dimapur substation shutdown identically, naming the same timings, feeders and executive engineer. greaterkashmir.com covers an entirely separate set of shutdowns across Kashmir division planned by KPDCL on multiple dates in November 2026. Because three sources describe one event and the fourth a different event on a different system, there is no stance conflict to analyse: the coverage is uniform straight reporting of separate utility notices. Neither story names a next step beyond the scheduled restoration after each day's work.
