They undertook technical works earlier this month as well. The electricity supply company had also announced power shutdowns in several colonies in South Bengaluru on March 6 from 10 am to 5.30 pm. The BESCOM stated that power was shut down in these areas: Kathriguppe water tank, Poornaprajna Layout, Kempegowda Layout, VHBCS Layout, Kathriguppe, Ramarao Layout and Srinivasanagara, because of electrical works that took place in the Banashankari 66/11 substation. On March 8, BESCOM had announced a series of power cuts across Bengaluru for the conversion of high-tension and low-tension cables from overground to underground. The work happened in multiple stages thus affecting the power supply on multiple days between Monday and Friday. The affected areas were Jayadeva, St Johns, Sarakki, RBI Layout, Khoday and Arehalli substations. Several parts of the city also faced power cuts in the last week of February. These power cuts lasted for eight hours because of cable-laying work that had been undertaken by the company.
