Load Shedding
Load shedding is an everyday occurrence in our daily life. It has become a common part of electric outages and system loss. It means the fluctuation and short supply of electricity for the time being. The load shedding occurs when the production of power is comparatively less than the growing demand.
The power authority disconnects the supply of a certain area to give the flow of electricity to other areas. The whole area plunges into darkness when the power line is cut off.
There is hardly any area that is not affected because of load shedding. The system has been going on for a long, but the solution to this problem is not in sight yet. It causes manifold problems to the rural as well as the urban people. Students suffer most at the time of their examinations.
The works of mills and factories are snapped due to the load shedding. It is a hurdle to the country’s overall socio-economic development. The power sector must be given top-most priority for its utility. The government should set up more power plants to cope with the current demand for electricity.
