KOHAT: Hundreds of workers of the Wapda hydroelectric labour union, Kohat chapter, held a protest demonstration here on Tuesday against delay in filling of vacancies in the Peshawar Electric Supply Company (Pesco).
Speaking on the occasion, the union’s office-bearers said 50 per cent of the Pesco’s technical staff was going to retire soon. They feared that delay in filling vacancies would create serious performance issues in the company.
