Bhopal Power Cut

A power outage, coupled with heavy rain, over the last two days has left Madhya Pradesh's capital in the dark.

Three patients died after an hour-long power cut at a multispecialty hospital in Bhopal that is treating COVID-19 patients, sources have said. After the power cut at 6 pm on Friday, the backup generator maintained by the Public Works Department (PWD) did not work and power was restored only at 7 pm, they said.

The Madhya Pradesh government on Thursday said "flying bats" have been causing faults in power supply lines in a locality of the state capital.

The Election Commission has admitted that CCTV cameras installed at a Bhopal strong room where electronic voting machines (EVMs) were stored after the Madhya Pradesh polls did not function for over an hour due to an unprecedented power cut on Friday, resulting in a blackout that provoked accusations of tampering from opposition parties.

Here's the story of a citizen crusader who has used RTI to push the city of Bhopal to clean up its police force cut down on crime.
