PESHAWAR: The Peshawar Qaumi Jirga, an alliance of various political parties, civil society and traders, has expressed concern over excessive electricity load-shedding in Ramazan in the metropolis and surrounding areas.
It warned of besieging the Wapda House, Chief Minister’s and Governor’s houses if the Peshawar Electric Supply Company (Pesco) failed to ensure a smooth power supply to the consumers.
The decision to this effect was taken at a meeting held at the residence of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader and spokesperson for the Jirga, Arbab Khizer Hayat, on Wednesday.
