पावसासाठी आशेने आभाळाकडे डोळे लावून बसलेल्या राज्यातील लोकांवर एक तास वाढीव लोडशेडिंगची वीज गुरुवारी कोसळली.

विजेचा तुटवडा ५२०० मेगावॉटवर गेल्याने मोठ्या शहरांत पावणेसहा ते आठ तास, मध्यम शहरांत आठ ते साडेनऊ तास, तर ग्रामीण भागात १४ तास इतका वेळ अंधारयात्रा लोकांना घडणार आहे. ही घोषणा होत असतानाच राज्यभर पावसाने हजेरी लावल्याने लोडशेडिंगला आळा बसण्याची आशा आहे.

The acute power shortage in the state, aggravated by absence of rains, will hit the industries in Maharashtra the hardest.

Beginning Tuesday midnight, all industries in the state will have to face extra eight hours of load-shedding, over and above the 16 hours that they undergo every week.

If the power demand-supply situation does not improve, the staggering (load-shedding) could soon go u read more »

Thane, Bhandup and Mulund can bid goodbye to load-shedding. The uninterrupted power supply will come at a cost though, and the consumers will have to pay an extra 8 to 12% in their monthly bills for this luxury. read more »

This can be called an official admission of the state’s failure to curb loadshedding. Admitting that the problem of power cuts has grown out of proportion, the state government recently issued an order to offer finance to all aided schools and colleges to purchase inverters.

महाराष्ट्र सोसत असलेल्या लोडशेडिंगच्या झळा सात वर्षांपूवीर् अमेरिकेतील कॅलिफोनिर्यालाही सोसाव्या लागल्या होत्या. ही समस्या दूर करण्यासाठी तेव्हा वापरण्यात आलेला फॉर्म्युला डोळ्यासमोर ठेवून राज्यातील वीजटंचाईवर तोडगा काढण्यासाठी महाराष्ट्र सरकार आणि कॅलिफोनिर्या येथील बर्कले प्रयोगशाळा यांच्यात संशोधन करार झाला आहे.

उन्हाळा संपल्यानंतर, थंडीच्या दिवसांत तरी लोडशेडिंग कमी होईल, या आशेत असलेल्या राज्यातील नागरिकांमागचा अंधाराचा फेरा सुरूच असताना, लोडशेडिंगमध्ये येत्या काही दिवसांत वाढच होण्याची चिन्हे दिसू लागली आहेत.

पश्चिम रेल्वेवर बहिष्काराचा 'गांधीगिरी'चा सोमवारचा प्रयोग अपेक्षेबाहेर यशस्वी झाल्याने मिरा रोड ते विरारपर्यंतच्या सामान्य नागरिकांमध्ये वेगळेच स्फुरण चढले आहे.

आता स्वत:च्या सार्मथ्याचे भान आलेली भाईंदरपलीकडची, लोडशेडिंगने त्रासलेली नागरिकशक्ती यापुढचा 'झटका' वीज कंपनीला देईल, अशी दाट शक्यता आहे.

I don't think these citizens have heard of the 'Mumbai Unplug' program.. I don't think they have even heard about Global Warming but they sure do take top honors in my book for actually "doing" something about local problems faced by their fellow citizens.
