Residents of Naudero, Waryam Channa, Sahab Khan Shaikh, Imran Ali and others have alleged that Sukkur Electric Power Company (Sepco) operations and grid station authorities are responsible for extended load-shedding to cover the units of stolen electricity.
They also said that while honest bill-paying consumers continue to face power outages, electricity thieves are enjoying power supply without paying their bills.
Six hours of load-shedding each day continues in Sukkur while the duration in Larkana is eight hours. Even the hospitals are not spared. Citizens have demanded an end to unannounced and prolonged load-shedding as well as to power theft in which Sepco authorities themselves are involved.
