Paragraph:2-Load Shedding

Load Shedding
Load-shedding means the practice of stopping the supply of electricity for a period of time because the demand is greater than the supply.Load-shedding is a great curse where people have got used to an electricity-oriented life.It occurs when the generation of power is less than the demand.Besides,unplanned distribution and illegal connection of electricity are also responsible for it.When the production of power falls short of the total requirement,the supply of energy is suspended temporarily at one area in order to provide adequate power in another area.On account of load-shedding, the big cities and industrial areas suffer most.All of a sudden,streets are covered with darkness with a few lights of cars and buses flashing here and there.The running productive machines come to a standstill in mills and factories.The sufferings of the students due to load-shedding beggar description.They sit idly in the dark closing their books.The curse of load shedding does not spare even the hospitals.The research materials and medicines kept under controlled temperature and in refrigerators are damaged.The commodities preserved in cold storages get spoiled.To get rid of his problem,we need to take effective steps to produce adequate power,to ensure planned distribution,to set up more electric plants,to disconnect the illegal connections,to prevent misuse,and to keep open the shopping places and business centres during a specified time.However,we want that our government should think over the matter and take necessary steps as early as possible.
