It was not only the absence of governance coupled with corruption which has caused an energy crisis in Pakistan, but non-uniform load management of electric power load shedding that has further added salt to injury and which will reflect in the coming elections planned for 11 April. On my recent trip to Lahore for attending a marriage, I had to endure crippling power breakdowns extending to 16 hours daily in a posh locality, namely Cavalry Ground located in Lahore Cantonment. Now I understand the anger of people of this province against this unjust load shedding, where cities like Karachi and Hyderabad hardly have to endure any electricity shutdowns beyond five hours a day, as compared to 9 hours in Peshawar, and ranging from 12 to 18 hours daily in Rahim Yar Khan, Multan, Lahore, Faisalabad and Jhelum etc.

Our energy deficit is too huge to be overcome by small dams, wind and solar energy. It will be a few years before coal can contribute. But coal will not give us water. More and more people are saying that the new government should launch Kalabagh dam as a long term solution to our energy and water problems. It is only ignorance of the actual facts that is making people oppose the dam
we almost forget the meaning of energy……..
