Wastage of electricity

We are grumbling about electricity shortage leading to frequent load shedding during summers. Unfortunately, we do not see the wastage and misuse of electricity in urban areas. I have noticed the shopping centres with dazzling lights in much excess of their requirements. The gold shops, sweet shops and other market places where buyers throng during the peak load period are wasting so much electricity. I do not understand a sweet shop or gold shop using scores of tube lights to show their products, whereas a buyer with genuine intent could see them with the light of even two bulbs. The big shopping complexes are illuminated inside and outside in a way as if some celebrations are going on.

I hope the persons in charge will look into the matter and take the necessary steps to stop wastage of electricity.
