Srinagar: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has assured the people of Kashmir that power restoration efforts are in full swing after the recent snowfall caused widespread disruptions. In a X post, he detailed the current status and ongoing work to address the outages.

“In Kashmir region, 41 feeders at 33 KV level and 739 feeders at 11 KV level are down. None at 132 KV or 220 KV level. Restoration work is underway, and more than 90% feeders are expected to be up and functional by evening today. I’m in regular touch with the PDD team to monitor the situation,” Omar Abdullah wrote.
