| ‘Stop selling Jammu’s electricity to other states’ | | We ask for power, you give us bills, impose smart meters | |  Early Times Report
Jammu, May 3: Residents of Janipur staged a protest here on Tuesday against the failure of the government to regulate electricity and water.
Protesters raised slogans like “return our power projects,” “stop selling Jammu’s electricity to other states.”
They said, “Even on date we are facing a 15 to 20-hour power cut. It’s deplorable. We are suffering and the government seems least bothered about it.”
Protesters said, “Power infrastructure is in shambles. Instead of repairing the existing set up, they are imposing Smart Meters on us. We are asking for electricity, you are resorting to power cuts.”
They said, “Instead of power you are giving us the bills. First provide electricity to J&K then sell it to other states. We have no power, no water.” |
