Ganderbal, Jan 9 : Outraged
over pesky power cuts, hundreds of residents of Duderhama, Fatehpora, Saloora,
Malpora, Arampora, Warpora and adjoining villages of this district blocked
Ganderbal-Srinagar road near Mini secretariat.
Protesters comprising
mostly women raised anti-PDD and anti-government slogans against the unscheduled
power cuts. “The main Ganderbal town is facing unscheduled power cuts more often
than the far flung areas,” protesters alleged.
“We get power supply for
only two hours at a stretch and after every hour or half an hour we experience
power cuts for hours together,” they added.
Later top police officials
reached the spot and pacified the protesters.
