UDAIPUR: Udaipur power cut measures have been officially announced by the Ajmer Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited (AVVNL) affecting more than 40 major residential and commercial zones across the city on Saturday. The scheduled disruption, driven by urgent infrastructure maintenance and high-tension line servicing, will remain in effect from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, impacting thousands of local residents, academic institutions, and commercial establishments.

Comprehensive Maintenance Schedule and Affected Zones

Residents across major residential belts of Udaipur must brace for a major udaipur power cut this Saturday as the Ajmer Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited (AVVNL) undertakes critical grid upkeep and high-tension line maintenance. The scheduled power suspension will remain active for seven consecutive hours, starting precisely at 10:00 AM and concluding at 5:00 PM. According to the engineering wing, the shutdown is imperative to prevent seasonal breakdown of distribution transformers and to clear hazardous tree branches entangled with overhead transmission wires.

The extensive maintenance drive will impact more than 40 distinct residential colonies, educational hubs, and commercial thoroughfares. Key areas slated for the disruption include Sundarwas (A and B Blocks, Northern Sundarwas), Arvind Nagar, Vidya Bihar, and the premises surrounding Kendriya Vidyalaya. Citizens planning travel or weekend chores should note that traffic signals along major arterial routes like University Road and RTO Road may also experience temporary manual management during peak hours.

University Road, Bohra Ganesh, and Sundarwas Hardest Hit

The administrative circle encompassing Bohra Ganesh Ji, Vinayak Nagar, C Class, and Jaisree Colony will witness absolute power termination during the seven-hour window. Municipal officials have confirmed that water pumping stations drawing power from these dedicated feeders will remain non-functional, prompting local ward authorities to advise residents to store adequate water beforehand.

Furthermore, commercial establishments along Pahada Thokar Chauraha, Mahasatiya, and Bahubali Colony have been notified in advance to make alternative power arrangements. While vacation planning remains a popular topic among locals—such as residents checking out Udaipur to Goa flights and train options for upcoming winter holidays—local business owners are instead focusing on securing backup generator rentals for Saturday’s outage.

AVVNL flying squads and maintenance teams have been deployed across strategic substations to execute the repair works expeditiously, ensuring that power restoration occurs promptly at 5:00 PM without requiring extensions.

“Our technical teams will utilize the 7-hour shutdown window to overhaul aging isolators and replace damaged lightning arresters across the Sundarwas and Bohra Ganesh feeders.” — Executive Engineer, AVVNL City Division Udaipur

• Feeder Overhaul: Upgrading aging isolators and lightning arresters across Sundarwas feeders.
• Water Supply Impact: Municipal pumping units on affected lines will stay offline.
• Commercial Advisory: Small businesses advised to secure diesel generators for retail operations.
