ISLAMABAD ( 92 NEWS) Minister for Power Omar Ayub Khan has announced that there would be no load-shedding and load-management during the Eidul Fitr holidays across the country. In a video message, he said, out of 8,790 feeders, no load-shedding was being carried out on 80 percent feeders across the country. He said it was for the first time that there was no load-shedding during Sehr and Iftar in the holy month of Ramazan for which the Prime Minister Imran Khan had given special instructions. The minister said the government is determined to carry forward the campaign against electricity theft across the country. Last week, K-Electric on Friday had announced to provide uninterrupted power supply to residential consumers during Eidul Fitr holidays in Karachi. A K-Electric spokesperson had said that in order to provide maximum relief to Karachiites, the power utility decided to exempt the city from load shedding during the Eid holidays.
