A cruel joke!
When we the people of Bangladesh dream of a load-shedding free country, our prime minister wants us to suffer from load-shedding at least for two hours every day, just to ensure that we do not forget the word 'load shedding,' even if we have enough electricity.
What a cruel joke it is! She also said that it is okay to accept load-shedding to have a reduced electricity bill. I don't think anyone considers load-shedding an option to cut their power bill. Rather she should have encouraged the people to become smart users of electricity. How could she say that two hours of load shedding every day is too little to hurt the country's productivity?
When this kind of irresponsible comment comes from a prime minister, it becomes very difficult for us to swallow.
