Massive power outages make people life miserable

LAHORE: The unscheduled loadshedding of electricity coupled with a very hot weather made lives of the people very miserable across the country.

The power outages continued for more 20 hours a day.

The business centers gave a deserted look and especially those traders, whose business linked with electricity, literally went jobless.

The load-shedding of electricity especially during night made people pass sleepless nights and due to shortage of sleep, the people went irritated and the cases of quarrel have been increased.

There was also a shortage of water as all the water supply schemes are stopped due to load shedding. Despite the caretaker government repeated assurance that the load shedding would be cut short, no respite has been made to the people.
