CHANDIGARH:
For the third straight night, a complete blackout was imposed in border districts of Pathankot, Ferozepur, Fazilka, Amritsar and Gurdaspur following inputs from the Indian Air Force.
From 8.50 pm onwards, lights-out orders were also issued in Jalandhar, Patiala, Kapurthala, Moga, Bathinda, Rupnagar, Barnala, Sangrur, SBS Nagar and Hoshiarpur as a precautionary measure. Electricity was restored in Ferozepur and Patiala around 10.30 pm, with Kapurthala, Bathinda, Muktsar and Sangrur also lifting the blackout around 11 pm.
