SrinagarUnscheduled and extended power cuts have started aggravating residents in Srinagar. They alleged that of late both metered and unmetered areas in Srinagar have been witnessing frequent energy cuts putting the consumers to inconvenience.
They said that the pesky power cuts are triggering resentment among various localities, who asked Power Development Department (PDD) to shot monthly bills only after supplying proper power to consumers.
Locals of Syed Abad Soiteng said that the area is witnessing eighteen hours power cut. It seems the PDD has no power schedule these days for our locality. After twenty minutes of power, the light goes off, said locals of Syed Abad Soiteng.
He added that area has been reeling under darkness from the past one week
Consumers from Dalgate also said that there are frequent cuts in power supply after almost every two to three hours and mostly there is complete black-out in the mornings and evenings. They added that they are witnessing distress power cuts quite often. (PTK)
