The Bangalore Electricity Supply Company has scheduled some more power cuts in Bengaluru this week in the light of quarterly maintenance works undertaken by the KTPCL, the sole distributor of electricity in Karnataka.

Many areas in Bengaluru might face power cuts this week, as the Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (KTPCL) will be carrying out a number of maintenance projects.
