Loadshedding

Published May 28, 2015

IN Block II-K, II-A, II-H and II-J Nazimabad No. 2, the duration of loadshedding has been s increasing day by day. In the beginning, there was only one-hour of loadshedding a day. Now, it starts at 6pm and lasts till late in the night. This has paralysed life for the people.

Another problem is low voltage (100V to 140V) due to which TVs, fans, energy savers, etc., do not work properly. Frequent breakdown of electrical appliances has become a daily feature.

I request the authorities concerned to resolve these problems as soon as possible.
