Load-Shedding of electricity has become a common feature in Pakistan. Whether it is winter or summer. Shedding or unscheduled sometimes with disguised name like load-managerment is here. The unsheduled one is the worst because is cause untold problems and hardship to every one. The misery, pain and torture the whole country. Expect the privileged one suffers during every summer due to load-shedding is evident to all.
Searee rains, shortage in river water, low generation and high consumption of electricity, new connections to villages and factories, fewer dams power theft and line losses are said to be the contribulings factors behind load-shedding. However, people call them lame excuse. They feel that load-shedding is the result of corruption, inefficiency, mismanagement and defective planning in wapda. Then little generation of electricity from atomic and solar energy, poor use of available resources, lack of provincial consensus and the general apathy of the government contribute to load-shedding. Sometimes the genii of load shedding is unleashed on the excuse of repair-work that unlocking for the people continues throughout the year.
Load shedding causes untold misery and pain to all type of people. The main sufferers are student, parents, traders, industrialists, labourers, farmers, mechanies and housewives. Workless days and sleepless nights due to load shedding in crease tension and force people to protest and violence. No doubt incessant load shedding, man availability of water seorching heat and the resultant death of the dear ones make people unruly. Then load shedding brings all economic, agricultural and industrial progress to a stand still. It discourages foreign in vestment. Again crimes like theft robberies and blind murders also rise during load shedding start a long episode of misery helplessness and frustration.
Pakistan can not make progress in any field as load shedding is there. All possible measures like over having of wapda. Instant construction of new mega dams development of available resources maximum generation of electricity from atomic and solar energy, stoppage of line losses and power theft etc. can be helpful in ending load shedding. Besides, people should make a proper and wise use of electricity. They should turn to using energy saving devices. No doubt such steps will contribute to ending load shedding in the country. Then instead of resorting to load shedding is a force saving device, the government should take solid and fool proof steps to save this country from becoming a worldly hell due to load shedding particularly in summer.
