JAMMU, Apr 18: The workers of Shiv Sena (AG) and Dogra Front under the leadership of their president, Ashok Gupta, took out a protest in Jammu city by holding fans and water cooler in hands against the unscheduled power cuts and shortage of water.
While speaking on the occasion, Gupta said that power cuts of six hours in Jammu City and 10 hours in the rural areas are making the people to suffer when the summer season has just initiated.
He said in these days, when the temperature is soaring only electricity and drinking water can provide some relief from scorching heat but unfortunately both these commodities have gone out of the reach of a common citizen.
“On one hand, the Government does not ensure regular supply of electricity and drinking water and on the other it acts like a dictator and immediately disconnects the connections if any consumer deposits tariff a little late”, he added.
Gupta said that the shortage of these basic amenities has transited people back in the cavemen era where most of the things have to be compromised.
