National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) took notice of the complaints of the load shedding across the country during examinations.
Nepra issued instructions to all distribution companies for uninterrupted power supply at the examination centers.
According to Nepra, complaints of electricity load-shedding have been received during examinations across the country and load-shedding is causing disruptions to students during exam papers.
According to Nepra, all distribution companies (Discos) are bound to provide uninterrupted power supply to consumers and load shedding during exams can affect student performance.
All companies should review load shedding activities and distribution companies ensure no load shedding across the country during papers.
Nepra clarified that if the instructions are not followed, action will be taken against the distribution companies.
