The national grid is fine, the problem happened in some parts of the state grid”, said Union Power Minister RK Singh
The Union Ministry will send a team from central authority to look into this matter, “we are sending a team from the Central Authority to Mumbai to sit down with the state transmission authority and find out where the problem was and how it started.
