JAGIROAD: Most erratic power supply at Jagiroad has caused drastic resentment among the people here. It is learnt that frequent power failure has jeopardized the already broken economy of this small town. It is stated that following closure of three government-owned industries like the Hindustan Paper Corporation (HPC), the Assam Spun Silk Mills Ltd. and the Assam Polytex Limited, the market scenario of this town was very much deteriorated and then the pandemic COVID-19 has further put downward pressure on the entire economy of the once industrial town Jagiroad. While expressing resentment, the concern section here said that in addition to those, now the erratic power supply caused tremendous lost to the business and student fraternity in particular and the common people in general. Due to this the students cannot attend the ongoing online classes. It is alleged that the local office of the APDCL here does not bother the problems of the consumers. Not even a single officer stays in the residential colony of the office which caused severe untoward incidents during night. The abandoned quarters are still lying vacant like 'Bhut bangla' and pollute the neighbouring environment. The section urged upon the higher authority to look into the matter before it turns into a worse situation. It is also alleged that the senior officers are busy allotting contracts and new service connection via some local agents.
