There will be no scheduled powercuts today, Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) Chairman Janaka Ratnayake said.

However, he said intermittent interruptions between 2 pm and 6 pm may be experienced to stabilize the national grid.

The Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) is now receiving fuel stock for today’s electricity generation, he said. (Chaturanga Samarawickrama)

No scheduled power cuts.... only un- scheduled outages.... are you nuts... Yesterday you gave schedules and the nation responded by rescheduling its timetable for today. Do you think we'll be in awe of your generosity. Your irresponsibility is awesome.

What non-sense is he talking about. We in Pamankade are right now having the second power cut since this morning. I do't know who these jokers are trying to fool. And it's not 2PM yet

who cares what this fellow says. One day he says no power cut and next he says there is power cut. Do not know what kind of fellows this government has employed.

Are we to believe him any longer? Power was interrupted to us at about 3.10 p.m. and has not yet been restored (even at 3.45 p.m. to us in the deep south of the country.

Jankaka Rathnayaka's air conditioner must be at less than 15 c looking at his ridiculous attire.

Janaka Ratnayaka must be another Viyathmaga failure like Thesara Jayasinghe of Litro Gas ?

Scheduled power cuts are better than haphazard power cuts. Small businesses like bakeries lose a lot of money with unscheduled power cuts .
