Pakistan: Naked wires · Global Voices
Neha Viswanathan

Metroblogging Islamabad on the menace of naked wires. “The Blue Area commercial district is a good example of the seriousness of the problem. Wires tangled in rows of electricity meters greet people at the entrance of almost every building. Like artwork, it welcomes those who enter to the thrilling journey ahead. However, most people don't realise it as a threat, until some accident happens and then they curse their fate, and the government, burn tires and block roads.”
