A fire broke out at the Aminbazar grid around 12:45 am, causing power outages in Kalyanpur, Agargaon, Mirapur, Savar, Cantonment, and Satmasjid Road, according to ABM Badruddoza Khan, a spokesperson for the Power Grid Company of Bangladesh.
In the wake of the blackout, netizens took to social media to raise questions and seek explanations about the matter. However, discussions online did not gain further traction as electricity was restored before morning.
Kawsar Amir Ali, the managing director of Dhaka Electric Supply Company Limited, said the issue stemmed from a tripped line in the Aminbazar''s 230 KV grid, leading to the shutdown of the 132 KV substations in Mirpur, Agargaon, and Kalyanpur.
Bikash Dewan, managing director of Dhaka Power Distribution Company, said power was fully restored in all affected areas by 5 am, with approximately 25 MW of load-shedding occurring during the outage.
