Altaf Hussain demands solution to power crisis

LONDON:

Muttahida Qaumi Movement(MQM) chief Altaf Hussain appealed to the government to rationalise electricity at official residences, including that of bureaucrats, chief ministers, governors, the president and prime minister.

Addressing MQM members in London, Mr Hussain demanded the government to take action against influential people who have not paid electricity dues. Altaf said accusing the common man of electricity theft is not fair.

He said the economic condition coupled with electricity loadshedding is wreaking havoc to peoples' lives.

Altaf Hussain called on the government to exercise simplicity and avoid pompous lifestyles.
