Last Monday, in a review meeting taken following power outage, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray asked all stakeholders to speed up the project by adhering to its timelines.

Trains have been stuck on the tracks, businesses affected and the work from home employees could not work as Mumbai thrust into darkness last Monday and that lasts up to 14 hours in some of the areas.

“Adani is committed to completing the Kharghar-Vikhroli transmission line project within the timeline set by Thackeray,” a spokesperson for Adani Group said in a statement.
