Everybody in all areas provided with electrical energy is familiar with the term" load shedding". It means the discontinuation of the supply of electrical energy. Inadequate generation of power and its unplanned distribution are primarily responsible for load shedding. Statistics shows that, the demand of electricity in our country is around 3500 MW-4000MW daily but PDB (Power Development Board of Bangladesh) supplies only 1500-2000MW. So this huge number of shortness of electricity is not expected to a developing country like Bangladesh. To be developed a country should be developed industrially and to run industry and factories electricity is foremost. Load shedding is a great curse where people have got used to an electricity-oriented life. On account of load shedding the big cities and industrial areas suffer most. All on a sudden street are covered with darkness with a few lights of cars and buses flashing here and there. Kerosene lamp, petromax and candle stick only half light big shops and market places. Thieves and pick-pockets freely prowl on the streets. The running productive machines come to a stand still in mills and factories. The suffering of the students due to load shedding is beggar description. The curse of load shedding does not spare even the hospital. The plight of a patient undergoing an emergency operation when the lights suddenly go off can better be imagined than described. The research materials and medicine kept under controlled temperature and in refrigerators are damaged. The commodities preserved in cold storage get spoiled. The food stuff and eatables put in our refrigerators for deferred consumption become rotten and unfit for use. In fact, words are inadequate to give proper vent to the discomfort and harm caused in our life by this unscrupulous practice of load shedding. All concerned must join their hands to liberate the people from the curse of load shedding at a very early date. PP (Public & Private) project can play an important role to raise the power of electricity in a quick time. The general people have to very conscious to use electricity. Unnecessary use of power may minimize the problem. Above all, it's a nation's crisis- we should cooperate shoulder to shoulder.
