Makhachkala residents complain about aggravation of communal problems
In Makhachkala, residents had problems with the supply of electricity and water earlier as well, but the problems have worsened this year, complain local residents. According to their stories, in order to ensure normal living conditions, people have to buy generators and water storage tanks, but they are not able to help under all circumstances.
The “Caucasian Knot” has reported that since August 9, residents of Makhachkala have blocked motorways at least four times in protest against the power cuts. On August 17, protests took place on Akushinsky Avenue, on August 16, local residents blocked Gamidov Avenue, and on August 15, residents of the Reduktorny village tried to block a road.
Residents of Makhachkala should fight more actively for their rights through filing official complaints about power cuts, emphasize Dagestani activists.
Isa, a resident of Makhachkala, says that in the area where he lives, the water supply is cut off very rarely, but the supply of electricity is cut off from time to time. The resident of Makhachkala notes that the problems with the energy supply have worsened this year.
According to a story of Murad, a resident of Makhachkala, the problem of the power cuts became more acute with the onset of abnormally hot weather.
Gasan, a resident of the Semender village, has complained about an equally acute problem with unstable voltage, which damages electrical devices and equipment. The man also says that when the electricity supply is stopped, his family members sometimes go to their relatives and sometimes sit at home by candlelight.
