Improve power scenario in Valley: Tarigami
Jammu: Anguished over the erratic power supply and scarcity of essential commodities in the Valley, CPI (M) State Secretary and MLA Kulgam, M Y Tarigami today urged the government to take immediate measures for improving the power scenario and ensuring availability of daily needs.
“In the sub-zero temperature the people have been deprived of ration, sugar, kerosene oil and LPG due to insensitivity of the government machinery. Despite huge hydroelectric potential, the state has been energy deficit, which is the main cause of economic inertia and unemployment,” Tarigami said in a statement.
He demanded provision of food grains at Rs 2 per kilogram to the BPL families.
