Wednesday,
August 1, 2012.

India's historical blackout that left almost 10% of world's population to experience huge fear due to major power failure at 13.00 pm on tuesday has come to an end. Power was restored to major cities on tuesday evening itself and for the rest of the regions, power is restored on wednesday morning. The cause of power failure is not yet known though the power minister, Sushil Kumar Hende has already started blaming the northern states consuming more power than its alloted quota as the reason for the failure of power grids. Sushil Kumar Hende assures the actions against the states that consumes more power.

Traffic on both railways and roadways have come to be a stall due to this blackout and the passengers are left stranded in the middle of their journey. Traffic blockage happened in all cities due to loss of traffic signals due to blackouts. Miners were trapped underground in west bengal and Jharkhand areas. Only major cities who have back up options were not much affected by this blackout.
