Mumbai: In a shocking revelation, the Maharashtra government on Monday said that the massive and unprecedented power blackout that paralysed Mumbai and surroundings for several hours on Oct. 12 2020, was caused by a suspected cyber-attack originating in China. I feel the media reports that have emerged in the matter are true, a grim Energy Minister Dr. Nitin Raut told media with Home Minister Anil Deshmukh accompanying him this evening.
Suspecting sabotage as the cause behind the power outage, Raut had requested Deshmukh to probe the matter to get to the truth and a preliminary report in the matter has been submitted to the government.
