I hear that on the 30th and 31st of July, the world woke up to the news of the biggest blackout in history, the great Indian blackout. First chaos and then darkness engulfed most of north India (well, darkness yes but not chaos really).
As I got from the new papers the next morning (yes, I didn't know of the big black out until the next morning), 3 grids (the northern, the eastern and the northeastern) broke down resulting in collapse of power supply in 22 states and union territories. A nifty map in a news paper shaded the north Indian states in black leaving the rest of India in yellow (I wonder why yellow?)

Pathetic...but truth mus come out
Really It could happen again when Congress Government sworn on Indian Parliament. Its totally work negligent by the Energy minister and his department. You are giving a leak poll to our enemy country and terrorist also where you can hit and gain big success. I think our parliament and constitution body of India totally collops. They dont think about the country and his progress but they are always trying how they can earn morn money by corruption. Think about country and his progress.
Indeed Kavita. Gurgaon near Delhi is worst. But there are other parts of India and several of them live in a very different condition that we city dwellers can't even imagine.
The situation is going to get worse with no rains.I live in South India ( Chennai) we have power cut one hour everyday and once a month it is for a fullday (9am-5pm).Yes we all depend on inverters,which has become a boon to city dwellers.
