SHIKARPUR: The people of Shikarpur were irked when unannounced prolonged power outage was conducted by Sukkur Electric Power Company [SEPCO]. After the prolonged outage, the people of Shikarpur strongly condemned the tactics of SEPCO officials in Shikarpur and expressed their reservations believing that as the summer season has begun, power outages have been increased across the district despite of several announcements made by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. He stated that power outages have been reduced across Pakistan while residents of Shikarpur demanded the SEPCO Chief Sukkur and other officials to reduce the duration of power outages to remain in accord with a schedule issued by SEPCO authorities, otherwise they threatened to extend their protest movement against unannounced load shedding accordingly.
