Electricity theft at mosques

I WANT to draw the attention of the government towards electricity theft in mosques. In my city, Naudero, and its suburbs mosques measuring 12 by 12 feet are kept cool by two to three airconditioners runnng 24 hours a day without meters.

Even people sleep in mosques after prayers, especially during Ramazan. All mosques are getting power from illegal ‘kunda’ connections without paying any bills, but paying bribes to meter readers.

The authorities should take stern steps, as early as possible, to stop power theft by mosques.
