Power Woes Plague Phase 9: Residents Cry Foul Against PSPCL
Residents of Phase 9 are battling persistent power outages and dangerously low voltage, a situation exacerbated by the ongoing monsoon season. Hours-long blackouts are commonplace, disrupting daily life and causing significant inconvenience.
The root of the problem, according to irate residents, lies with faulty transformers and the alleged unresponsiveness of PSPCL officials. Reaching the complaint centers, residents claim, is an exercise in futility.
Neighbouring sectors reportedly face similar electricity woes, highlighting a broader issue within the PSPCL’s service area. The power utility, however, attributes the ongoing problems to transformer failures.
This persistent power crisis underscores the urgent need for PSPCL to address infrastructure deficiencies and improve its responsiveness to citizen complaints. The lack of reliable electricity not only impacts daily life but also hinders economic activity and raises serious concerns about public safety, particularly during the monsoon. The situation demands immediate and decisive action from the authorities.
