HYDRABAD: The shortage of water and an increase in the hours of load shedding have hit Hyderabad amid sweltering summer and the holy month of Ramazan during which the people fast for around 15 hours.
The Hyderabad Electric Supply Company claims it has been facing over 45% shortfall in the demand and supply of electricity from the national grid.
The Water and Sanitation Agency (WASA), a subsidiary of Hyderabad Development Authority (HDA), blames HESCO for the water supply and drainage problems which have been affecting the citizens. At a meeting on Monday, Divisional Commissioner Hyderabad Nadeem-ur-Rehman Memon expressed dismay over the officials of HDA and WASA.
