Sir: As far as the people are concerned, everybody in Karachi is fed up of the catastrophic state of load shedding. In the peaceful month of Ramzan, the people have been plunged into darkness. The rapid increase in temperature with load shedding has paved the way for many problems. Federal Minister for Power Khawaja Asif on Thursday announced no load shedding during Ramzan. The Prime Minister (PM), on the other hand, ordered the upgrading process of the distribution system to be expedited. However, the situation shows that these were just announcements to placate the citizens. There is no shortage of agreement that every day one more hour of load shedding is being added to the miseries of the people. ATIYA MOOSA Via Email
