ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Saturday directed the power authorities to limit loadshedding across the country to two hours, warning that he wanted results not explanations over the matter.
Chairing a meeting to address the issue of hours-long unannounced loadshedding in the country, Shehbaz Sharif asked the power division officials and federal ministers to do whatever was necessary to minimise the loadshedding to two hours in a day.
Shehbaz Sharif while rejecting explanations over the loadshedding duration said that the officials should minimize the miseries of the masses rather than giving explanations.
“I only wanted to provide relief to the masses and will not accept the ongoing situation of loadshedding,” a defiant PM said and added that he would not compromise on it and will not let any minister and official rest until the situation improves.
He directed the officials to work day and night to restore power supply to businesses. The prime minister also directed the finance minister to arrange all necessary resources for dealing with the issue.
