Mumbai: Power failure in Antop Hill due to problem in BEST feeder supply

Mumbai's Antop Hill area witnesses power failure for some time due to a problem in the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport feeder supply.

Meanwhile, many other parts of the city observed a massive power outage on Sunday morning at around 9.40 am, affecting the electricity supply in almost every part of the city.

Maharashtra government officials told reporters that due to tripping of MSEB 220kv Transmission line on Mulund -Trombay, the power supply to most parts of Mumbai was affected.

This is the first major power outage in Mumbai since October 2020.
