LOAD-SHEDDING OCCURS FREQUENTLY

Load-shedding is not anything new in the localities of Bangladesh. But at recent time this problem has become so great that it is almost unbearable. In the cities load-shedding occurs for about 6/7 hours out of 24 hours of a day. Though people get the sunlight at day, the whole city sinks in the darkness of load-shedding at night. This problem is terrible more in the village areas. Where "Polly Biduit" is served, people have to spend time without electricity for about 12/13 hours a day. Moreover, it is the time of Higher Secondary Certificate examination, one  of the biggest public examinations. Most of the examinees choose the time from evening to mid-night to prepare themselves properly for the examination. But load-shedding occurs for 3/4 hours and does not let them study as they need and wish because it is not so easy to study with candle light in this hot days of summer. The demand of electricity in summer season is more than in any. But we can not ignore this demand anyhow. Where people in many countries do not know what load-shedding is, a large amount of babies have to see the darkness at the first glance of its life just after it is born here in Bangladesh. As the citizen of a developing democratic country the people of Bangladesh can expect electricity for a few hours more. Otherwise, the development of the country will be hampered and the dreams of innumerable parents towards the young generation will be destroyed.
