Ukhrul, March 27:
Erratic power supply in Ukhrul District has irked the public profoundly so much so that the chairmen of Ukhrul Town have pulled up their socks for a showdown.
The local chairmen committee comprising of 17 chairmen of all the Ukhrul Town have submitted a memorandum to the Chief Secretary on behalf of the people of Ukhrul HQ yesterday stating that the irregular electricity supply in Ukhrul has smitten the denizen like a bolt from the blue despite the fact the HSLC and HSSLC examinations are nearly over with no remedial measure from the side of the Government.
Moreover, the scheduled load shedding is not being followed properly, the memorandum said, while reasoning supply of power only for half an hour during day time and then having no power supply for two to three days at a stretch is not power supply at all.
