Pesco says no loadshedding without notice
KOHAT, April 20: The Kohat executive engineer of Pesco, Arbab Khan Afridi, has assured the district naib nazim that there will be no loadshedding in the district without the announcement of Wapda chairman or Pesco chief.

The council had warned that if demands were not met then it would urge consumers to stop paying electricity bills.
