    No loadshedding during Sehri and Iftar times, PM Shehbaz passes instructions

    Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif has directed his government to ensure that there is no loadshedding during Sehri and Iftar times in the holy month of Ramzan— set to start at the end of March.

    He also gave directions that there should be minimum loadshedding in the upcoming summer season and directed authorities to accelerate the process of solarising government buildings.

    He asked for the completion of all projects in the power sector and solarisation in the country within the stipulated time.

    Earlier this year, Pakistan faced an energy crisis when a major power outage left the entire country without electricity for more than 12 hours.

    Amid the energy crisis, last year, the premier formed a committee that worked on reducing electricity consumption in government offices by 30 per cent. He also ordered officials to convert federal government buildings to solar energy at the earliest.

    Firdous denied overnight stay, Sehri at govt residence

    Former special assistant to prime minister (SAPM) on information and broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan was refused government-owned residence in Multan for an overnight stay, Geo reported.

    The former SAPM travelled to Multan from Karachi in a car and was accompanied by friends and a maid. However, reports said, upon arrival at a government-owned circuit house in Multan, she was refused entry by the night guard who said that she was not a public office holder anymore. Firdous asked the guard for a Sehri meal but was refused again and had to send her driver to the market to purchase a meal.

    The former SAPM exchanged hot words with the lower staff of the government residence and tried to get in touch with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) District President Khalid Javed Warraich and Deputy Commissioner (DC) Amir Khattak, but their phones were switched off.

    The news outlet reported that when the caretaker of the official residence was contacted, he said that there was no advance booking and the lower staff did not have the authority to allot a room to someone not holding a public office. He added that when he reached the circuit house in the morning on Sunday, Firdous had already left for Lahore.
