Hyderabad: While power supply to Visakhapatnam is inching towards normalcy, the situation remains difficult in Srikakulam and Vizianagaram.

Only partial supply has been restored in Srikakulam from 130 KV sub-stations. Even consumers who have got electricity restored are experiencing power cuts.  

Restoration work in Vizianagaram, meanwhile, is in a primary stage.  

Officials are hopeful of completing at least 85 percent of work in all the three districts in three to four days, but will take more time to complete each and every single connection.

Restoring power supply to Visakhapatnam is still 24 hours away, despite workers working round-the-clock for restoration.
