JAMMU, July 15: A sit-in protest was held by the Jagti Tenement Committee (JTC) and Soan Kashmir Fron at Jagti township, Nagrota near here, today under the chairmanship of president JTC and SKF, Shadi Lal Pandita.
Addressing the protesters Pandita alleged that the water supply scheme constructed for Jagti township has completely failed and the camp inmates are facing water scarcity.
He said the water supply turns defunct during rainy season and despite the repeated requests the Government failed to set it right or renovate it with the result the migrants are put to many hardships.
He also expressed dismay over the long duration power cuts in the Jagti township and said that the camp inmates especially old, infirm and children are worst suffers of power curtailment in this hot and humid season.
He demanded enhancement of cash relief to Rs 25,000 per family per month.
