The Dahisar-Andheri East metro line 7 work is all set to make you sweat for four long hours early on March 25. The western suburbs will have no power supply from 3 am to 7 am on Sunday, as the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development (MMRDA) will work on increasing the height of the high-tension wires near Thakur Complex, which is coming in the way of the Metro.
In a press release issued on Thursday, the authority said, "There will be no electricity supply in the K-West, P-South, P-North, R-South, R-Central and H-West wards, which cover areas like Vile Parle, Juhu, Andheri, Versova, Jogeshwari, Goregaon, Malad, Kandivli and Charkop, from 3 am to 7 am on March 25. The MMRDA will raise the height of high-tension wires in front of AVON Plaza Society, Thakur Complex, Kandivli."
