No doubt loadshedding is a curse, especially at dawn and dusk ie, at the time of dengue attack. People have been pushed to the wall. They are forced to come out on the streets to protest.
Two significant solutions: a) our state should start an austerity drive to control its expenses; b) and the public must stop burning/damaging state property.
We, the Pakistanis, always react unwisely, causing further losses instead of minimising them. What has happened in Gujranwala is really condemnable. Damaging railway engines, motorcycles, private cars, traffic signals and other property would only hurt us. It will neither solve the crisis nor will it benefit the protesters. Just a point to ponder over.
