Look to the sun

Look to the sun

The promises made by both the PML-N and PPP to provide free or affordable electricity to households consuming below 300 units have not materialized. Instead, people are enduring severe electricity shortages and hefty bills. While the government is focusing on various development projects, I believe our priorities need reassessment. By sponsoring interest-free, instalment-based solar panel systems we could benefit thousands of families.

This would alleviate the burden of high electricity bills, reduce shortages, and support the national grid by mitigating electricity theft. This strategy would not only address the immediate electricity crisis but also contribute to long-term environmental sustainability and economic stability. I urge the authorities to consider this viable alternative for the betterment of our nation.
