LAHORE: Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif in his tent office at Minar-e-Pakistan continued to protest against the load-shedding in Punjab on the second consecutive day, reported Aaj News.

He vowed to bring back electricity and said, the PML-N standing with the nation until the power crisis will not be rooted out.

"The politicians have driven the people to a point where they wanted employment and electricity instead of democracy", Shahbaz said.

Over 4000 megawatt electricity can be generated if dues of 200 billion provided to the oil companies. But the rulers are not serious, he said.

Criticising the Pakistan People’s Party-led government at the centre, Shahbaz said millions had been looted from the country in the past four years.

He vowed to get rid of "Ali Baba and 40 thieves" saying that if the country’s wealth was recovered from corrupt leaders and officials, the country’s power crisis could be resolved within 24 hours.

On Friday, Shahbaz Sharif placed a tent office beneath Minar-e-Pakistan in protest against the worst loadshedding across the country specially Punjab.

Talking to media, he said a national commission comprising genuine representatives of the masses should be formed and those should be given representation on the commission whose elders had sacrificed their lives and properties for Pakistan.
