Power supply of 15 cantonments deliberately switched off, says official

Power supply of certain areas in the strategically located 15 Corps Cantonment here was switched off as a precautionary measure Tuesday night, officials said.

Some areas of the cantonment are located on Zaberwan hills and electric supply to this area was stopped in anticipation of a Pakistani retaliation to the pre-dawn strike by IAF jets on the biggest terrorist camp of Jaish-e-Mohammed inside Pakistan, they said.

In the meantime, Pakistan has suspended internet services in the entire occupied Kashmir area, security agencies said.
