I did begin to sit down to write at 2020hrs but.......connectivity issues....
As it rained last night in healthy quantity, the electricity has predictably become more present than absent.
I've hinted before that Pakistan has an unhealthy reliance on hydropower-ed electricity (particularly from our territory) and its selfish - coupled with myopic - strategy has created havoc with the environment - particularly in the last few years - such that the natural flow of water is not increasing enough in summer - despite the melting of glaciers - thus a reliance on rain to aid the water flow into these hydropower projects.
Rain deprives us of electricity when it comes - because of weak infrastructure - but once it recedes, the additional flow of water creates more power generation, leading to more electricity for us.
I will give you a widely quoted figure of roughly how much electricity is produced in AJK and how much we need:
