Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif presided over an emergency meeting on power outages in the country on Tuesday, ordering the authorities in charge to end power load-shedding in the country by May 1.
According to 24NewsHD, during the meeting, the prime minister was briefed on electricity production, supply, and consumption, as well as a comprehensive strategy for ending power load-shedding in the country.
The meeting was also attended by Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb and PML-N leaders such as Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and Musaddiq Malik.
It should be noted that during the ongoing holy month of Ramazan, power outages occur every one to two hours in various small and large cities across the country.
According to reports, power outages are causing problems in Karachi, Lahore, Faisalabad, Rawalpindi, Peshawar, and Quetta.
According to reports, the daily duration of power outages in Karachi has reached 10 hours.
Students are said to be the worst victims of load shedding, as they find it difficult to complete their studies while experiencing prolonged power outages while fasting.
