“Instead of ensuring regular power supply, the Power Development Department is resorting to frequent cuts in these areas,” said a resident.
The Residents of various areas in the Anantnag district speaking to The Kashmiriyat said that their areas are witnessing repeated power cuts, both in the mornings and evenings.
“We spend evenings in complete darkness,” due to frequent power cuts said a local, adding, “The unscheduled curtailments are hampering the studies of our children preparing for different exams.”
Locals said that the work of the receiving station at Ara Koshipora is going at a snail’s pace. “We have approached the higher authorities but nothing was done on a ground-level other than fake promises by the Department.
The residents have appealed to District Administration Anantnag to complete the work at the Receiving station as soon as possible.
Meanwhile speaking to The Kashmiriyat, the Executive Engineer of PDD, Fayaz Ahmad said that they would ensure power supply as per the schedule. “Due to the overloading of some feeders and system constraints, the residents are facing unscheduled cuts.”
“We urge the people to cooperate and not indulge in misuse of power by using high-voltage electronic devices including heaters and boilers during peak hours so that power supply is provided as per schedule,” he said.
