Loadshedding in Turbat

Published

I WANT to draw your attention towards loadshedding in Turbat. The people are provided electricity for only two hours in the morning, two hours in the afternoon and two hours at night.

This is affecting hospitals, schools, shops and factories. Life is paralysed because of this. Students cannot study because of the same reason. They sit in the dark impatiently waiting for the power to come back.

The provincial government and the authorities concerned should end loadshedding for good.
