Load shedding affecting flour mills

Power outages are not only paralyzing normal life, but they are also creating food shortages.
In the Multan region, several flour mills have halted their operation due to non-availability of electricity. Also, many flour mills have been partially closed as the owners are unable to continue their production due to 16-hour long power cuts.
The situation is not likely to improve as Mepco is currently facing shortage of six hundred and seventy-five megawatts.
