in ahmedabad and other cities as well as rural areas.

Hey,
In Gujarat I can assure you nothing this *drastic* or *unfortunate* situation
is there, in some villages in Gujarat there are regular power cuts.
In Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities once in a week for about 3-5 hours power cut (fix
timing though).
I don't remember when was the last power cut in Ahmedabad.

Hi,
Since 2009, most of Tamilnadu is facing a power crisis. It started with few
hours of power cut. For the last few months, it has gone up to 18 to 20 hours
of unscheduled power cut every single day. Only Chennai city is exempted with
a 2 hour power cut. Government is not sure when the crisis will be resolved.
It could be next year or it could take few more years.
What this means for the growth of Wikimedia expansion in Tamilnadu?
Every single contributor in Tamilnadu that I talk to are unable to
contribute to their full capacity because of the power cuts. I fear that this
may be a bigger concern in attracting new contributors. When there is only
few hours of power left, other major concerns like work and study will be
given priority. There won't be much time for hobbies and forget geeky
activities like Wikipedia editing. This is a major blow given the fact that
computer and internet usage was increasing in the last few years.
How is the power situation in other states?
