The mercury is soaring here in  Manipur. Your sanity is lost the whole day.Thanks to the rain&#8230;.The  rain saves me from a lot of discomfort.<\/p>\n<p>The frequent power cuts in my work place made me very irritated,very  grumbled and very uneasy.I didnt mean to be a snob. But the idea of  using a hand fan didnt hit me.When will we get our power supply for 24  hours uninterrupted?<\/p>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zemanta.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_e.png?x-id=eb2bc1ee-4995-48e8-ab2b-620572d63dc2\" alt=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\">Read more \/ Original news source: <a href=\"http:\/\/kanglaonline.com\/2011\/08\/power-cuts\/\">http:\/\/kanglaonline.com\/2011\/08\/power-cuts\/<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Maisnam Chanu Liklainu The house plunging in darkness.Imagine a house which cannot afford an inverter or a generator.Worse still,a house having both but not in a workable condition.A total&#8230; <a href=\"http:\/\/kanglaonline.com\/2011\/08\/power-cuts\/\">Read more <span>&#187;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,4],"tags":[68,759,760,33,330,671,34,761,762,364],"class_list":["post-15198","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-kanglaonline","category-news","tag-business","tag-china","tag-electricity-north-west","tag-india","tag-kanglaonline-2","tag-lis-notes","tag-manipur","tag-power-outage","tag-rolling-blackout","tag-twitter"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15198","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15198"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15198\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15198"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15198"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15198"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
