Pakistan - Mian Manzoor Wattoo contacts other opposition parties to protest load shedding

Instructions have been issued to the PPP divisional, districts and tehsil levels office bearers and workers to protest the ongoing torturous load shedding of electricity and government’s inability to control it on June 26, said Mian Manzoor Ahmed Wattoo in a statement issued from the Party Secretariat today.
He said that the protest by the PPP in Lahore would be on the pattern of the opposition parties in Islamabad on the date adding that he was contacting the leadership of the other parties to participate in the protest because the people had fed up with hollow promises of this government. Their credibility in this count is zero, he added.
He pointed out that judging from the track record of this government it was easy to draw the conclusions that this government was quick in making tall promises but no deliverance at all and as such the people had lost all hopes of better days in this count.
He observed that now the government had promised to control it by 2018 adding that would also prove wrong because they were very poor in performance but pro-active in playing with the gallery. Their game plan has exposed to the people and they are not in the mood of giving any lease of life to this government, he added.
He recalled that the chief minister of Punjab used to boast that he would control load shedding in months not in years, and could only add 100 mw in two years and that too the most expensive electricity having no parallel. The Nandipur Power Projects is not producing electricity since it inauguration and is a constant source of heap of embarrassment for the chief minister and his governance, he added.
He maintained that the PML (N) sought the votes of the electorates on the electricity issue in 2013 elections and yet they pushed the people to the shocking level of load shedding of electricity that had made their lives miserable.
He said that during the PPP government the load shedding of electricity was far less as what the people were facing now even during the holy month of Ramzan. The record will bear it out that there was never electricity load shedding during sehri and Iftar during the entire period of PPP government, he asserted.
