Power Tariff Hike Sparks Political Storm In J&K As Apni Party Women Protest In Srinagar
The Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party’s Women’s Wing staged a protest in Srinagar against the revised electricity tariff hike, accusing the National Conference-led government of failing to provide relief to consumers. The demonstration comes after a 6.83 per cent average increase in power tariffs came into effect across Jammu and Kashmir from September 1, intensifying the political debate over electricity costs.
