LAHORE:
The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has announced to hold protests across Punjab against load-shedding in the province, according to a local media outlet’s report.
“Province-wide protests will start from Friday (June 26) in which party workers will stage demonstrations outside press clubs in every district of the province,” said PPP Punjab leader Manzoor Wattoo on Wednesday.
“The government has completely failed to control the on-going power crisis in the country,” he added.
He went on to add that scores of people were killed during the current heat wave but the government was not paying serious attention to ease out the sufferings of the people.
