Save power

I live in a four-room apartment. For last few years I have been using lights in my apartment very sparingly. I only put on lights in rooms which are essential and that too only one lamp and a fan when necessary. My living room lights are usually off unless I have some guests. I was wondering if we all could use electricity very prudently and when and where it is necessary. I think we could all contribute in saving power and bring down the number of power outage in a day. I get surprised when I see many apartments having scores of lights on after dusk which can be avoided. We all should use common sense when we very well know that our country is passing through a serious power crisis and as true citizens we all should come forward to ease the crisis. Our private television channels should also frequently advertise between their programmes requesting people to use minimum lights possible. If we do not participate in helping the nation at the time of crisis, how can we expect any party in power to solve national problems?
