MENDHAR, Dec 20: The entire Mendhar, Gursai, Balakote and Mankote area of Poonch is facing severe electricity crisis due long unscheduled power cuts.
The National Conference activists also held strong protest against the local PDD authorities on Saturday alleging that people are being victimized as hardly 6-7 hours power supply is ensured in 24 hours. The students are the worst sufferers. Moreover, banking operation has also been badly hit. They alleged that this crisis has deepened for the last about two weeks and higher authorities in the PDD have failed to mitigate the sufferings of the people. The department is sending bills to the consumers despite the fact that power supply is not being ensured. It takes months to replace the damaged transformers to the department.
