Punjab Chief Minister Najam Sethi on Thursday said that immediate relief would be provided to citizens as load shedding would be reduced by three hours till May 1 and reduced by five hours after the said date. He further clarified that restaurants of Lahore would not be shut down after 11 pm to save electricity.
According to details, the interim chief minister said that the federal government had given approval to the release of Rs 45 billion for reducing load-shedding. He said that after release of this amount, there would be a significant reduction in load shedding across the province. However, the chief minister announced that street lights would be shut off across the province to conserve energy.
Furthermore, the chief minister said that due to decrease in load shedding, the law and order situation would improve in the province.
He said that the federal government had made consistent efforts to ease the electricity crisis across the province and had succeeded in securing Rs 45 billion for the task.
Sethi said that as chief minister, he had been calling out energy crisis as a national problem since the first day. He stressed the need for adopting a national approach for resolving the issue.
The chief minister said that the president, prime minister, federal ministers, industrialists, traders and representatives of the media were apprised of the seriousness of the load shedding during meetings. He appreciated the release of funds for the electricity crisis.
Mr. Sethi reduction or destruction, Mr. it has increased in Lahore cantt
3 hours reduction in daily 12 hour or more load shedding? where? it's even much worst now.. 2 hours of electricity after every two consecutive hours of load shedding.
exactly, even in the most posh areas of lahore its 14-16hrs.
Sethi has proven to be a 'not a man of commitment". He first announced that Basant and kite flying was going to take place and then he backed off….5 hours of reduction is nothing…..
What a darkest and sorrowful for an Atomic country to face Electricity laod-shedding in the history of Pakistan.See U.A.E since creation on world map,how wonderfully this country developed and got an honorable place in the world and what about Pakistan being loser of its part e,g East Pakistan,we still go on destabilizing our motherland.Shame on us and on our rulers too.For Allah`s sake do not quarrel with eact other for getting governmeent,but determine to struggle and fight for the solidarity and prosperity of Islamic Republic of Pakistan.PAKISTAN ZINDABAD DEVIL AND ITS PARTNERS IN ANY SHAPES ARE MURDABAD.
which part of this makes the law and order situation better? shutting off the street lights or keeping restaurants open after eleven?! what a farce
What a political and dramatically statement for the people of Punjab.For Allah`s sake do not play foul games with Punjab and Central must be positive.
