Srinagar, Jun 05 :\u00a0<\/strong>In an unexpected turn of developments, Jammu and Kashmir has recorded a 25 per cent sudden cut in the power supply from outside, a move that has triggered a \u201ctemporary power deficit in the UT.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Officials\u2019 privy to the development told news agency\u2014(KNO) that the J&K\u2019s power supply has been cut by 25 per cent without \u201cany clear reasons.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kashmir region, as per official sources will face the brunt of the power shortage given the soaring temperatures in Jammu, where the power department is resorting to minimum possible cuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sources while divulging the details said that presently, there is a deficit of nearly 25 per cent electricity supply from the centre. \u201cThis has triggered a temporary power crisis in J&K,\u201d they said, adding that there was no clarity as to what led to the power availability issue, but it seems that such a situation would continue for some time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe deficit of 20-25 % electricity has forced the KPDCL as well as the JPDCL to go for the power cuts,\u201d sources said, adding that power cuts are less in Jammu compared to Kashmir. \u201cKashmir can bear given the low temperatures. In Jammu, there is a heat wave, so cuts are less there,\u201d an official source, disclosed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pertinently, the consumers from different areas of Kashmir here have complained of power cuts again, stating that the erratic power supply has once again led to their sufferings here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mushtaq Ahmad, a local from Chattabal area of Srinagar, said that the KPDCL has once again resorted to the power cuts from last Saturday. \u201cThe department had changed the winter power curtailment schedule, but the power cuts have once again led to the hardships to the people,\u201d he said. The KPDCL officials, however, said they were not aware as to how long the crisis would continue. An official said that things would be clear in a week\u2019s time as to what led to the sudden cut in the power supply to J&K.<\/p>\n
