Pakistan is grappling with the challenges of the upcoming Basant season, which is expected to attract millions of people to the country. However, the event has also raised concerns about the use of electricity due to the use of metal kites, which could be detrimental to the LESCO (Lahore Electric Supply Company) system.
As the residents of Lahore and other cities prepare to celebrate the festive season, they are also stockpiling street lights, which are in high demand for kite-flying at night. In a statement, Chairman LESCO, Amir Drazia, expressed his concern that the use of metal kites could cause significant damage to the LESCO system.
