BESCOM Power Cuts Today (January 27): Tumkur and Kolar Residents Face Intermittent Supply

The Bangalore Electricity Supply Company Limited has scheduled power cuts from 24 January to 27 January. The outages will affect parts of Tumkur and Kolar districts during maintenance work. BESCOM has planned these shutdowns in advance to keep the grid stable and safe. Households and businesses are expected to face intermittent supply during this period.

BESCOM stated that the shutdown supports routine upkeep of key lines and equipment. The company aims to reduce sudden failures and protect infrastructure during high demand. Officials have requested public cooperation during the planned outages. Consumers are urged to adjust routines and prepare for temporary loss of electricity supply on those days.
