Unscheduled power cuts in Palpora Ara, Koshipora, Damhal and adjacent areas are giving a tough time to the residents, as their daily life and business have been heavily impacted.
Locals, here, expressed strong resentment against PDD for failing to provide scheduled power supply to the localities during such bone-chilling cold.
The residents alleged that they were reeling under 6-7 hour power cuts, everyday and that no attention is being paid towards their plight by the administration.
They said that they have appealed to the authorities in this regard many a time but to no avail.

“If PDD is unable to provide scheduled power supply to us then they don’t have the right to charge us for electricity,” said a local resident while talking to The Kashmiriyat.
The locals say that the unscheduled power cuts have worsened, especially, in the last 10 days. They allege that the power supply to the villages and the adjacent areas was worsening with every passing day.
The frequent power cuts have also affected the business fraternity and students community, severely.
The residents appealed to the higher authorities to look into the matter and address their problem.
Meanwhile, in this regard, The Kashmiriyat contacted the A.E.E. P.D.D, Fayaz Ahmad Shah, who said that overloading was the main cause of frequent power cuts. He added that people used heaters, boilers, geysers, and other heavy power consumption equipments resulting in snapping of power supply due to overloading.
