“End the 200-Unit Tyranny!” Noman Ijaz Sarcastic Take on Pakistan’s Rising Electricity Prices

As Pakistan swelters under scorching summer heat, rising electricity prices have added fuel to the fire, leaving citizens frustrated. Actor Noman Ijaz joined the chorus of dissent, mocking the recent tariff adjustments by the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) in a biting social media post.

NEPRA’s revised rates now categorize consumers based on usage:

• 1-100 units: Rs. 10.54/unit
• 101-200 units: Rs. 13/unit
• Non-protected consumers: Rs. 22.44/unit
• 201+ units: A staggering Rs. 28.91 to Rs. 47.69/unit

Noman Ijaz sarcastically highlighted the plight of ordinary Pakistanis, writing, “In this brutal heat, a common man glances at his meter, then at the sun, and then at his children begging for mercy.” His post ended with a sharp plea: “For God’s sake, spare the public and end this ‘200-unit tyranny!’”

The comment reflects widespread anger over inflated bills and relentless load-shedding, which have made life unbearable. While NEPRA’s changes await government approval, critics argue the tiered system unfairly burdens middle-class households already struggling with inflation.

Noman Ijaz satire resonated with netizens, sparking debates on energy policies and governance. As temperatures and tempers rise, his words serve as a stark reminder of the human cost behind bureaucratic decisions.
