Al-Salami pointed out that the demands of the people of Al-Khalis are to cancel the zero hour, increase the share of Al-Khalis from 100 to 130 megawatts, follow up on the employees of the electricity distribution stations responsible for the unfair scheduled power outages, and address the poor services.
