According to the new schedule announced by the power department, summer capital Srinagar is set to face power cuts ranging from 4.5 to eight hours every day. As snowfall continues in the region, bringing down temperatures, the electricity issues are set to adversely affect the people.
The Kashmir Power Distribution Corporation Limited (KPDCL) announced a 32-hour to 56-hour per week power curtailment schedule a month, earlier than it had announced the same last year.
The KPDCL said that the non-metered areas of summer capital Srinagar will face power cuts for 8 hours every day and it will be 4.5 hours in metered areas.
