A severe Nor'wester (Kalbaishakhi) storm hit Bhubaneswar, causing widespread damage to electricity infrastructure and uprooting hundreds of trees. Major areas like Nayapalli and Saheed Nagar faced blackouts for over 5 hours. The power outage led to water shortages in apartments and hazardous driving conditions due to non-functioning streetlights and waterlogging. Fire services and electricity department workers are currently engaged in restoration and road clearance operations on a war footing. https://odishasambad.in/hours-after-kalbaisakhi-power-woes-persist-across-bhubaneswar-residents-face-difficulties/ #creator program
