Guys.... this is interesting:
around 1997, it was a time when Sharif handed over many civil organisations to Musharraf in order to lower administration costs for reducing expenses as we were close to bankrupt.
Naturally one organization was WAPDA and it was also the time when i was beginning my job and i had almost daily visits at WAPDA house and various WAPDA field/sub offices.
Believe it or not wapda employees were forced to come to office at 08:00 hrs. and after 08:15 Mr. young captain would mark absence for late comers. No more salaries for bogus appointments of minister.
In the WAPDA field offices, when employees were doing nothing, Mr. young captain would assign them other tasks i.e. of planting and cleaning the bushes around the office, if that was no enough than paint the building and furniture.... if all is done than a long march..... guys it was so funny to see wapda employees marching in one line in chappals and shalwar kameez.
But seriously, the surroundings and interior of wapda offices slowly started to take up the getup of cantonments.
