As the nation braces for the electrifying Pakistan-India showdown in Dubai, Lahore’s power authorities have stepped up to ensure fans don’t miss a single ball of the action. In a move that reflects the country’s cricket obsession, the Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) has suspended all scheduled shutdowns and maintenance permits on Sunday to guarantee uninterrupted electricity during the high-voltage encounter.
LESCO CEO Mohammad Ramzan Butt confirmed that special teams have been deployed across the city to swiftly respond to any technical faults that may arise during the match.
The decision comes as cricket mania sweeps across Pakistan, with households, cafes, and community centers gearing up for one of the most anticipated fixtures of the Super Fours stage of the Asia Cup. From rooftop screenings to roadside stalls with every electronic device blaring commentary, the atmosphere in Lahore is electric, quite literally.
This is the first meeting between Pakistan and India since the drama which followed their September 14 Group A match. With tensions expected to run-high, LESCO has ensured that fans don’t need to worry about missing a single second of this pulsating contest.
LESCO’s proactive approach has been widely appreciated by fans, who have praised the utility’s commitment to the national passion. With the lights guaranteed to stay on, all eyes now turn to Dubai, where the Green Shirts will look to settle scores and ignite celebrations back home.
Let the game, and the power, stay on.
Pakistan is going to lose . No one cares
