Published December 4, 2001

BADIN, Dec 3: The representatives of the Matli Shehri Action Committee took out a protest rally on Monday against the unscheduled loadshedding since the last two weeks in Matli.

The protesters marching through the roads reached the main bus stop. They were led by Baboo Leghari.

The speakers complained that Wapda had failed to look into subscribers’ grievances. They said that ever since the new SDO (E), Wapda, had taken charge the people’s problems had increased. They demanded that he be transferred.
