Islamabad: On Monday, PML-N leader and former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said that the government was “sorry” for the ongoing electricity loadshedding in the country and pledged to fix the issue in the coming days. “The government needed time to rectify the power shortage as the country was producing 21,000 megawatts and there was a shortfall of 4,000 megawatts”, Abbasi said in a press conference. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif held a meeting in this regard and decided to reduce loadshedding to 3.5 hours, he added.
