Prolonged power outages play on nerves of Pindiites
July 7, 2021
Rawalpindi: The performance of Islamabad Electric Supply Company (Iesco) stands exposed as the electricity system of twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad is playing on the nerves of the consumers who have to brave prolonged power outages fluctuations, tripping, and low voltage for the past many days.
The residents of areas near 502 Workshop and Adiala feeders falling under Adiala Grid Station are facing 12 to 16 hours of power outages for the past three days. The heat-stricken consumers have strongly protested against Iesco but in vain. The protesters also blocked the main Adiala Road, burnt tyres, and raised slogans against Iesco here on Tuesday.
