Frequent power surges in Mohali have forced several factories to stop operations, leaving staff waiting through the night.
Several manufacturing units in Mohali reported abrupt interruptions in electricity supply on Tuesday, causing production lines to come to a standstill. The irregular voltage spikes, described by plant managers as "eye‑twitching" fluctuations, forced machines to shut down for safety reasons.
With the power outage persisting through the night, workers remained on site, unable to resume their shifts until a stable supply was restored. The prolonged downtime has added to operational losses for the affected businesses.
Industry representatives have appealed to the local electricity board for an immediate resolution, emphasizing that reliable power is critical for maintaining output and safeguarding employment in the region.
