Punjab power outage: Farm groups cancel stir after situation improves

BATHINDA: In view of improvement in power supply to the agriculture sector, farmer organisations in Punjab have decided to postpone their planned protest outside the residence of Punjab chief minister Captain Amarinder Singh, Moti Mahal in Patiala on July 6.

The farm groups will observe the power situation for the farm and domestic sectors for a few days and if the situation worsens, the protest plan will be revived, said farm leader Buta Singh Burjgill after a meeting of Sanyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM) at Singhu border on Sunday. He said, “As the power situation has improved and eight-hour power supply has been restored, we have decided to postpone the protest plan for the time being, but if the situation worsens, we will hold the protest.”
