Jammu And Kashmir Electric Heater Ban

Hours after its bizarre order banning the sale, possession, and use of electric heating appliances even as the Valley reels under a cold weather, the authorities in Jammu and Kashmir's Ganderbal district late Saturday withdrew it with a "correction."

The curbs on the sale of heaters, geysers, ACs and other electric appliances have been imposed under Section 144 - usually used to ban large gatherings.
