There was a reduction in demand to the tune of 850 MW. The total demand of Mumbai came down from 2000 MW to around 1200 MW and different parts of Mumbai were affected like South Mumbai, Chembur, and suburban areas,\u201d he said.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content-10\" id=\"trade-2965324265\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- in_content_3_news -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2969612066\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p>                Banga said the company restored the power supply in an hour by stepping up hydro generation to full capacity and avoided much larger damage.<\/p>\n<p>               Maharashtra Energy Minister Nitin Raut said he has ordered a high-level inquiry into the 70-minute power outage incident in South Mumbai, as per a statement from his office.<\/p>\n<p>                &#8220;I instructed the officials to ensure restoration of the power supply at the earliest and also took stock of the work in progress at regular intervals.
