Restore supply
This refers to frequent power supply cuts for long hours through out the valley during the past days. We the residents of Nihalpora Pattan area are suffering a lot due to power cuts especially during nights as these days exams are going on and our students cannot read due to darkness at night. This is for the first time I have seen in my life that before two months of winter we are facing such long power cuts and we can imagine from this what will be the position in winter. It seems with the shifting of Darbar Move to Jammu, electricity has been diverted to serve ministers and VIPs there. So we appeal the Higher authorities to make power supply smooth in the area as we cannot suffer more.
