At the time of election every party promises to fulfill the basic needs
and demands of the people but when it comes to power it forgets its
promises. We voted for the people’s party expecting a better result but
when the people’s party came into power again the same tradition was
repeated. Instead of solving the problems of common men Zardari become
the chairman of PPP and started accommodating his relatives and friends
in the government. Load shedding added to the misery of common man. With
load shedding factories which had provided bread and butter to 90
percent labor class were closed; inflation increased. When factories
were closed thousands of people became jobless which added to their
miseries. Many people committed suicide because they could not meet the
demands of life. The common man had been already hit hard by the sky
rocketing prices. To add fuel to the fire load shedding added to his
woes. The common man could get relief back home previously after a day’s
work. He would enjoy the TV, sleep in a well ventilated room with a
cooler which was enough to beat the heat but now he is frustrated
whether he is at a job or jobless without electricity. If he is at a job
he cannot afford the facilities of UPS or generator to protect him from
hot weather.

Who will solve the problem of load shedding? The
minister water and power makes promises but doesn’t fulfill them. The government
should make dams installed grid stations so that the common may doesn’t suffer
and they should plan ten years in advance to meet the needs of the growing
population. Let’s hope and pray that the problem of load shedding is solved soon
and we are able to make progress industrially and economically.
