Tripura continues to experience power cuts after Remal cyclone hit coast

Agartala, May 29 (UNI) Two days after cyclone Remal hit Tripura, power supply in many places across the state, including several locations in the capital city of Agartala, has not yet been restored, which irked the citizens and prompted them to resort to agitation.
The families have been running out of water supplies for two days in major parts of Agartala. Many lawyers came out of court and demonstrated on the street on Wednesday in the Fire Service Chowmuhani of the city, close to the Chief Minister’s house, protesting the power cut.
“Proceedings in the West Tripura district and sessions court, along with other subsidiary courts, were badly affected on Tuesday due to a power cut from the previous night. The electricity supply remained disrupted today. Several serious cases are not being heard, and the judges' offices couldn’t function due to prolonged power cuts,” alleged agitating lawyers.
