Noida, be prepared. There won't be any power supply on October 8

With repair work to be carried out by PVVNL on the Sector-20 substation, electric supply to several areas of Noida city will be suspended for about eight hours on October 8. This substation houses a 220 KVA power line.

In fact, PVVNL seeks to repair and maintain all substations in Noida before Diwali so that people can get uninterrupted power supply during the season of lights. “Due to the ongoing Navratri festival, we have decided to carry out all repair work after the festival,” said a PVVNL official.
