Keralam facing power cuts due to rising temperatures, increase in electricity usage: Minister

Kerala is experiencing scheduled power outages as higher temperatures drive up electricity demand. Minister Sunny Joseph said the state's hydroelectric reservoirs are low because a weak monsoon has reduced water levels, curtailing generation capacity. The combination of increased usage and limited supply is prompting the government to implement load‑shedding measures to balance the grid throughout the state.
