One of the complaints came from X user Vishavjeet Singh, who tagged BESCOM regarding a power outage in Sonnenhalli near KR Puram. The resident said there had been no electricity for over an hour and requested an update on restoration work.

In response, BESCOM said a complaint had been registered under "A category" with Docket Number 101200526245993 and informed the user that the matter had been forwarded to the concerned subdivision. A few hours later, BESCOM posted another update stating that, according to confirmation from the Assistant Engineer and Junior Engineer, the issue had been resolved. The agency also asked the resident to revert if the power supply had not yet returned.

Another complaint was raised by Hari Mohan Varshney, who reported a power outage near PES Public School on Begur Main Road. The resident requested BESCOM to share the expected restoration time for the affected area.

BESCOM acknowledged the complaint and confirmed that a service request had been registered under Docket Number 101210526263081. The electricity provider later updated that the issue had been resolved following confirmation from field officials.

Meanwhile, another resident, Dinesh Mahto, highlighted the urgency of a separate outage while tagging BESCOM online. In his post, the resident said there was no electricity in Balaji Enclave, Doddanekundi, and appealed for immediate restoration, mentioning that a baby was crying because of the disruption.

Responding to the complaint, BESCOM registered another "A category" docket, numbered 101210526269632, and said the issue had been escalated to the concerned subdivision. The utility provider also expressed regret for the inconvenience caused to consumers.
