Power outage: People should appreciate power was restored within hours, says Sushilkumar Shinde - The Economic Times: "Shinde said he has submitted the report on the power crisis to the Prime Minister's Office (PMO).
"I have briefed PMO... in the USA light (electricity) does not come for four days, here we got it (restored) in a matter of hours," he said.
Power supplies were fully restored in 15 hours after the wee-hour tripping of grid on Monday, and it took almost 20 hours to get back electricity in all the areas that saw power failure yesterday.
After the second tripping of the grid yesterday, it was officials of Power Grid Corporation of India, the state-owned firm which operates most of the electricity transmission lines in the country, who were tasked with the job of explaining the reasons for the failure.
Earlier this week, Shinde had said that in 2003 there was blackout in some states of USA, which got fixed in about four days, while back home the engineers at Power Grid Corp were able to restore power in hours."
