Srinagar, Jan. 29 -- Shabir Ahmad, President of the Jammu and Kashmir Permanent Daily Wagers and Temporary Daily Wagers (JKPDL/TDL), confirmed that the disruption was a result of their strike. He said the protest was aimed at pressing for the long-pending demand for regularization of their services.

"Many employees have been working for years on meager wages without being regularized. This strike is to highlight our grievances," he said, adding that power supply is expected to be restored by evening. (KNT)
