\"\"Srinagar: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, residents of Kathpora in Shopian are grappling with a severe power outage that has now persisted for six days, causing immense hardships to the local population.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, the crisis has once again exposed Modi government\u2019s claims of widespread infrastructure development post abrogation of Article 370 in the occupied territory and the harsh realities faced by Kashmiris including students, businesses and households. Despite multiple appeals to the concerned authorities, no action has been taken to restore electricity.<\/p>\n

Locals are particularly disheartened, as the outage continues even during the sacred month of Ramadan. \u201cWe are very disappointed with this department. For several days, we have been appealing and bringing this issue to the authorities\u2019 notice, but we are being ignored.
