The main state-organised Independence Day function in Jammu and Kashmir was hampered today due to a malfunctioning sound system, officials said.
The event was held at Sher-i-Kashmir Stadium in Srinagar and presided over by Governor N N Vohra.
The audio system started to malfunction during the 'bhangra performance' by the jawans of paramilitary forces. As the audio system could not be repaired, the other cultural performances had to be cancelled.
A senior official said the cause of the malfunctioning was being investigated and action will be taken if any official is found guilty of dereliction of duty.
