Srinagar, Apr 21 (KNS): The leading members of Muttahida Majlis-e-Ulema (MMU) Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday expressed strong resentment over severe difficulties being faced by people in this holy month of Ramadan due to unscheduled and frequent power cuts, especially during Sehri and Iftar times, and also water scarcity in several areas.
MMU in a joint statement, issued to Kashmir News Service (KNS) said that in the past, governments and administrations tried to facilitate the people during Ramadan, but the harrowing experiences that are unfolding in this holy month are painful and worrying.
They said that the power supply is being cut off especially during Sehri and Iftar times, causing immense trouble to the people.
“In this regard, the people are not only deeply saddened and angry, but they also feel that the administration has no concern for the well-being and comfort of the people and their priorities are somewhere else.”
MMU stressed on ensuring uninterrupted supply of electricity and water and said that providing basic facilities to the people is the primary responsibility of the government and administration, whic should be fulfilled.
