Not only in Khi but all over Pakistan, as per my info. I came to know that small towns of Punjab province and and some localities of LHR have no electricity for 18 or so hours almost daily or every alternate days. What I have also heard that the electricity bills come out to be the same with or without load-shedding.

Looks like the govt. is trying to provide that best atmosphere to the Pakistani public to start Ramzan so they can observe it with greater enthusiasm than in the past.

Last time I was in Pakistan after election, we happened to cross a road at 8-9am, and there were huge yellow decorative bulbs on the road-side which went up to approx 2 miles that were still ON at that time of the morning. I was told that some chamcha of Nawaz lived in that area who won the election the night before hence was probably, 'celebrating'. I wondered all that 'wastage of national resources kis kay kaathay mai"?
