Loadshedding sparks off violence: Case against 2,000 protesters
Unbridled loadshedding provoked massive outburst of public sentiments against the electricity companies on Tuesday as the citizens converging in thousands at the city railway station clashed with police after resorting to violence. Protests were held in many other parts of the province also in reaction to enhanced loadshedding duration. The protest in Okara took an ugly turn when a large number of people, prominent among them traders, occupied the main track at the city railway station, stopping the Lahore-bound Quetta Express for three hours.
