QUETTA (Taman Ismail) – The worst loadshedding in Balochistan has made life for the citizens miserable.

Businessmen report that business activities have slowed due to the loadshedding, while rising electricity bills have further worsened the economic conditions.

Authorities have responded that the primary reason for the prolonged loadshedding is electricity theft. The non-recovery of stolen units has forced them to manage the load accordingly.
