No power supply
DERA GHAZI KHAN, Jan 31: Inhabitants of the bordering district of Balochistan observed a complete strike on Thursday in protest against power suspension for the last one month.
Traders and residents of Rakni, a town of Barkhan district of Balochistan situated some 100km from here, observed shutterdown strike in protest against suspension of electricity. The protesters blocked the road and gave a one-week deadline for restoration of power supply.
Sources told this correspondent that a Quetta Electric Supply Company line superintendent had sold the transformer providing power supply to Rakni. Later Balochistan police had recovered the transformer.— Correspondent
