I have heard that load shedding has also started in Bahria town lahore. Must be very disappointing for Bahria residents as we used to feel proud living in a society which is perfect in all respects. Can somone give insight about what is the actual issue and will it be over soon or it will continue with the rest of the country.

You've heard it right, but there is nothing to get disappointed at bro, at the moment load shedding happens for just half an hour in afternoon and another half an hour at night.

@bahrialoadshedding, thanks for the info if it is correct as I had heard it is more rigorous than what you are telling.

@tach, till today I didn't know this bribe part. I had heard that there is a lump sum deal between Bahria and lesco..meaning lesco will give certain megawatts uninterrupted to Bahria on monthly basis and Bahria will pay for that. Bahria was getting these megawatts on discounted price since they had made a lump sum deal. Onwards Bahria was charging a little higher than the usual price per unit from the residents and thus not only ensuring uninterrupted power supply to its residents but earning good money as well,...on the bills that we used to pay in Bahria account.

Bottom line if Bahria is giving us un interrupted power supply and we are paying the bills for that regularly....we should appreciate the management for such an arrangement instead of leveling allegations on them without having any concrete evidence...I think it is a negative approach. Whatever arrangements they do, it's them who have to answer for that not us as far as we are paying the bills regularly.

Rest, your approach about all should be treated equally.....principally no one would disagree. BUT let's establish such a society first where all are treated equally. Seeing the recent election results one can safely say that our society is still far from experiencing such an equality.

very well said Omil.

We should always appreciate the good work, Bahria practices "may" not be appropriate but they are giving benefits to the end user. If you see any business that benefits the user, they are super successful. People want to see what, how comes after.
