Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Governor Ghulam Ali on Tuesday directed Peshawar Electricity Supply Company (PESCO) to provide uninterrupted power supply to areas with 100 per cent recovery.
Chairing a high-level meeting on electricity load shedding and other issues here at Governor House, he asked PESCO to chalk out a mechanism to provide power supply to consumers who pay their 100 per cent bills in areas of power pilferage.
The meeting discussed problems and sufferings being faced by the people due to an unannounced power outage in Peshawar city.
Issues related to the timely repair of damaged transformers, replacement of damaged wires, and prevention of electricity theft were also discussed.
He said that WAPDA should create a proper mechanism for electricity supply among bill payers and non-bill payers.
The governor deplored that people collect donations at the street and neighbourhood level to get the damaged transformer fixed.
