Tata Power's frontline employees and Quick Response Teams are working tirelessly across flood-prone zones, addressing any power disruptions immediately. The company's substations are fortified with de-watering pumps, rescue boats, and life jackets to manage emergencies during floods.
Preventive maintenance activities, such as earth leakage tests at feeder pillars and elevating installations in low-lying areas, are being used to mitigate risks and ensure public safety. A fully operational Disaster Management Cell coordinates restoration efforts swiftly in affected areas.

Despite submerged streets and disrupted transport, Tata Power's Disaster Management Cell remains fully operational, coordinating efforts to restore services swiftly wherever needed. The company is saluting its linemen, the unsung heroes, for their dedication and courage in providing electricity to homes, hospitals, and essential services during the monsoon season.
Meanwhile, the India Meteorological Department has issued a red alert in Mumbai due to the heavy monsoon rains. Schools and colleges in Thane, Navi Mumbai, Panvel, and Palghar are closed on Wednesday, August 20, due to the heavy monsoon rains in Maharahstra. The BMC has debunked fake messages claiming a holiday on this date for schools in Mumbai.
The Indian government is planning to introduce bills in parliament for the removal of officials, including the Prime Minister, Chief Ministers, and ministers, facing serious criminal charges.
