The dwellers of Muhammad Zai, Jangalkhel and other areas of Pakistan on Sunday demonstrated over gas and electricity load sheddings.
Carrying banners and placards, the angry protesters blocked the Hangu Road and KDA Road, reports The News International.
During the demonstration, the agitators were seen chanting slogans against the Wapda for carrying out unannounced loadshedding in the area.
“The prolonged loadshedding has triggered a water crisis in the area,” one of the protesters told the newspaper, adding that they would intensify their protest if the loadshedding of electricity and gas was not minimized in the areas.
