Powercuts!

Typing this at 00:16 on Friday, May 22nd.

It's hot and humid tonight, and there's no electricity to run the airconditioner. Or even the fan. I'm in Gomti Nagar, not too far from Lohia Hospital.

I guess the grid couldn't take the load of such a large number of people running ACs, fans, and coolers after spending the entire day outdoors while their homes basically became furnaces.

It's pretty bad right now. I am sweating as though I've been jogging even though I am lying in bed as I type this.

I can't even begin to imagine the plight of those who can't afford airconditioning.

Anybody know what's happening?
