Gopalganj city and surrounding rural areas will experience a power outage of approximately two and a quarter hours on Sunday. This disruption is due to maintenance work on the 33 KV breaker at the Gopalganj grid, located at the RR Power House. Power supply will be suspended from 10 AM to 12:15 PM.

According to the electricity department, the repair work at the grid will commence on Sunday at 10 AM. Power supply will be restored as per schedule after the completion of the maintenance. During this period, all 11 KV feeders connected to the RR Power House will be shut down. These include Town-3, Kakarkund, Chhavhi, and Gausia feeders. Areas served by these feeders will not receive electricity. However, all feeders connected to the Haziapur Power House will continue to operate normally, and these areas will not be affected by the power cut.

An assistant electrical engineer stated that there is a technical issue with the 33 KV breaker in the grid. This maintenance is being carried out to rectify the problem and to prevent major breakdowns in the future. The department has appealed to residents in the affected areas to complete essential tasks such as filling water and charging mobile phones before 10 AM to avoid inconvenience during the power outage.
