LHC orders uniform loadshedding across country


The Lahore High Court (LHC) has ordered to carry out uniform loadshedding in all four provinces, Geo News reported on Monday.
The court was hearing a petition filed by Advocate Azhar Siddique against loadshedding during Sehri and Iftaar.
During the hearing, Chief Justice LHC Umar Ata Bandial remarked that no discrimination should be done on the issue of loadshedding and ruled that it should be carried out on a uniform basis across the country.
The Chief Justice LHC also referred to some newspaper stories regarding less loadshedding being carried out in areas where the prime minister and other ministers reside.
The court, moreover, issued notices to the federal government, Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) and other concerned authorities for August 7.
