Twitterati erupts over Bescom’s frequent power cuts in HSR!

HSR Layout residents are heaping ignominy over the Bangalore Electric Supply Company (BESCOM) for switching off power at will. Even when it does not rain, even during the winter, there are frequent power cuts, sometimes lasting for over six hours. And this has not gone down well with the residents.
Bescom officials contend that these could be for a range of reasons. From feeder relay issues to new power lines being laid for commercial entities to technical issues. Their justification is one of comparison. “Koramangala is worse, HSR is so much better,” said one official.
However, the residents could not keep their complaints to themselves and have taken to Twitter to vent their angst. Four hours ago, TheRJ tweeted to Bescom that there was no power in CPWD Quarters on 27th Main in Sector 1. At the same time, Naresh Parasaram tweeted, “Medical emergency. Patient is on oxygen respirator. Requesting power immediately in 1st sector.”
Munsi Mustaque was more livid: “First, be a stable power supply organization and then talk about being the best. BESCOM really sucks in providing power supply in HSR layout. My remote village has much better power supply than in Bangalore by BESCOM. At least, be like BEST or TATA power supply in Mumbai.” In another tweet, he says, “Dear BESCOM, why are there so many frequent power cuts in Sector 4 area? Day or night, there are power cuts all the time. Why are you not able to provide stable power supply?In the last one month, we have seen power cuts every day. Why such a horrible service?”
Aditya Khandelwal has tweeted that there is no electricity in Garden Layout, Sector 2 for over two hours, and he has tweeted to the Chief Minister himself. The tweets continue. Will Bescom better its act or continue to come up with excuses remains to be seen.
