Massive power failure in northern India; 8 states affected - Indian Express
(Conspiracy theory: It was a cyber attack)Eight states have been affected since late Sunday night due to major power supply failure in the Northern Power Grid.
The affected states include Delhi and Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir and Rajasthan. There will be no Metro train services till power supply is restored.
The northern grid collapsed at 2.30 am. According to reports, it might take four to five hours for the whole system to come back to normal.
No metro services in Delhi
Services on all six lines of Delhi Metro were affected today due to a major failure in the Northern Grid that supplies power to the modern transport system.
No trains were available on any of the six lines on the network from 6 am, when the metro network resumes services after a few hours of break.
A Metro spokesman said the services would be fully restored only after the power supply resumes.
