Memes flood Twitter as Pakistan suffers power outage

Pakistan experienced significant power outages on Monday.
The power outage is merely a literal reflection of the country’s current state.
Twitter users tried to find humour in the situation by making memes.

After the national grid malfunctioned on Monday, Pakistan experienced significant power outages. In a matter of three months, this is actually the second occurrence, not the first. Media reported that Power Minister Khurrum Dastagir stated that a significant voltage surge in the grid’s southern region was to blame for the outage. Additionally, it was promised that the electricity will be restored by 10 p.m.

Twitter users, on the other hand, are not among those who waste time making fun of the situation. Before that, “We are trying our utmost to achieve restoration before that,” Dastagir told Reuters. But instead of focusing on the negative aspects of the scenario, individuals tried to find humour in it.

The memes are too funny to pass up, and they cover everything from the need to charge mobile devices to being envious of folks who have solar panels installed in their homes.

Check out a few of the humorous posts we have selected for you:

An official told the media that “Generators are too far from the load centres and transmission lines are too long and insufficient.”

Several areas of the nation had total energy outages, from Karachi to the nation’s capital Islamabad, the eastern metropolis of Lahore, and Peshawar in the north. The power outage in Pakistan is merely a literal reflection of the country’s current state when coupled with the burning problem of inflation.
