Local people held protest demonstrations at Sheedi Chowk, Purani Mandi, Amphalla and Talab areas shouting anti-government slogans and demanded immediate restoration of power supply.
Traffic movement was restored when police intervened and pacified the people.
The power supply was snapped around 1000 hours today. "There was a snag in grid station that has resulted in snapping of power supply", a Power Development Department (PDD) official said adding that efforts are being made to restore the power supply.
