If you're in Bengaluru, here's something to plan your day around — several parts of the city will go without electricity for six hours on Wednesday, July 30. The outage will last from 11 AM to 5 PM, according to a notice from the Bangalore Electricity Supply Company Limited (BESCOM).

The planned disruption comes as Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (KPTCL) carries out emergency maintenance work at the Hebbal substation. BESCOM has urged residents in the affected localities to make necessary arrangements in advance.

The power cut will hit a wide swathe of north Bengaluru, including residential blocks, government quarters, and apartment complexes.

Here's the list of confirmed areas:

Power cuts in Bengaluru are not uncommon, but weekday outages during working hours can cause significant disruption — from stalled work meetings and classroom schedules to daily chores. If you live or work in any of these neighbourhoods, it might be worth charging your devices in advance, sorting out meals early, and preparing for a few hours offline.
