Besides, districts like Banka, Bhojpur, Aurangabad, Buxar, Saran, Gopalganj, Jahanabad, Gaya and Arwal are also receiving 20 to 30 per cent less electricity supply.Earlier, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Monday said that the state government is working hard to procure power to avoid cut. Electricity supply will not be disrupted in the state, he had said.Bihar Chamber of Commerce and Industries claims that lower supply has not affected industries in the state. The officials believe that the majority of the units are closed due to Durga Puja.”As the Durga Puja is currently underway in the state, the majority of the industrial units are shut. It could affect production if the state government would not act swiftly. I personally believe that the state government is taking measures to bring the situation under control,” said Amit Mukherji, general secretary of Bihar Chamber of Commerce and Industries.
