The Maharashtra State Electricity Transmission Company Limited (MSETCL) has announced power outages across several areas in Pune’s Sinhagad, Nanded city and Dhayari between 9 am and 6 pm Thursday.

The utility said in its official release that maintenance and repair works necessitated the cut and regretted the inconvenience to consumers.
