00:00 The protest is being held in Bheempura, Timber Market and Ranchot Line against electricity load shedding.
00:05 The protesters say that the area has been increased during electricity load shedding.
00:09 Anjum Wahab is with us. We will get to know the latest situation from him. Anjum, please tell us about this.
00:12 Yes, this is exactly the same place where two days ago, there was a protest.
00:17 The electrician had come to cut the electricity, so he was harassed by the merchants.
00:23 Today, the women and children are being protested here on the roads. They say that when this...
00:28 ...their fight with the merchants has started, but they have started cutting the electricity again.
00:34 Earlier, the electricity used to go for 2-3 hours. Now, they have been cutting it since 7 o'clock.
00:39 So, they are doing load shedding from 7-8 o'clock without any time limit.
00:43 They are giving electricity only at night, and they are doing load shedding for 2 hours.
00:47 They said that no matter what the situation is, they should not bother the workers of the area.
00:51 Now, the situation is that it has been 2 days since the electricity load shedding has increased.
00:58 Women and children have come out on the roads, and they have blocked the road for traffic.
01:03 They have burnt the tires and have stopped the traffic.
01:06 And their demand is that the electricity of the area should be discharged immediately.
01:09 And the additional bills that are being sent to the special forces...
01:11 So, Anjum, how many hours of load shedding is being done here?
01:14 If we count it with the hours, then if it is cut from 7-8 o'clock and it is done till 8 o'clock at night,
01:20 then there is a complete load shedding of 11-12 hours. The electricity is cut all day.
01:24 And the area is told that the electricity is discharged at 7-8 o'clock at night,
01:29 and it is discharged at 6-7 o'clock in the morning.
01:31 And in this too, the electricity is cut for 1-2 hours at night.
01:35 So, what does the administration say about this, Anjum?
01:37 The CEO of KLX, who gave a statement the other day, said that...
01:42 ...in areas where there is a lot of violence and violence is being perpetrated,
01:47 if there is a technical fault in those areas,
01:49 then it is not a good idea to fix it.
01:52 Because there have been two incidents in which it has been severely violated.
01:55 If there is a fault in the area, then to fix it,
01:59 if the administration provides help, then they will go to the area and fix the fault.
02:05 He had expressed his acceptance by giving a statement that...
02:07 ...to fix the water problems in the areas,
02:11 the KLX administration is also a victim of terrorism.
02:13 Because it was severely violated in Ahsanabad and Timber Market.
02:17 Okay, Anjum, thank you very much for sharing the details.
