BBIA criticises PDD for unscheduled power cuts

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, May 14: Bari Brahmana Industries Association (BBIA) has strongly criticized the Power Development Department authorities for imposing unscheduled power cuts for the last over fifteen days.
In a meeting of the BBIA held here today under the chairmanship of Anil Suri, president of the Association, the members discussed the deteriorating power supply situation in SIDCO Industrial Complex Bari Brahmana for the last over a fortnight. They strongly flayed the working of the PDD where nobody is accountable for repeated power failures in the Industrial area. They said that Department was not taking the issue seriously due to which the industrialists are facing huge financial losses and frequent machinery breakdowns.
They said the PDD authorities responsible for the supply, maintenance and up keep of  power infrastructure in the industrial complex should be held accountable for repeated power breakdowns. The Association issued appeal to the Chief Minister to intervene into the matter and issue necessary orders to restore the power supply to industrial sector without any power cut.
