“In this period of severe cold, widespread power cuts have disrupted the normal life. Business and small-big industries have come to a standstill, the LG administration has proved to be a complete failure in providing facilities and security to the general public,” Sahni said.
He that that power cuts continued even after hike in power tariff and installation of smart meters.
“The electricity that is generated by using resources of J&K is being given to other BJP ruled states instead of giving it to the people of J&K,” Sahni claimed.
Shiv Sena general secretary, Vikas Bakshi; vice president, Balwant Singh and others were also present in the protest.
