LAHORE: With the starting of summer, the Lahore Electric Supply Company (Lesco) has also intensified the loadshedding by increasing outage period by 8 hours for industrial sector and 12 to 16 hours for domestic consumers.
According to Lesco officials, the company is being provided 2,000 MW less than the allotted quota. They added that the ordinary man would have to bear the burden of load shedding as electricity supply to VIP’s cannot be suspended. The Lesco officials have urged the people to decrease their electricity consumption by 30 per cent; otherwise the situation will not improve.
