Táchira residents demand equal power cuts; allege local output diverted to national grid

Former opposition deputy Heriberto Labrador claims Táchira's thermoelectric plant generates ~70 MW, enough for local demand, but much is diverted to Venezuela's national grid, leaving the region with unequal rationing. Residents are demanding Caracas share the burden of outages. The claim is unverified but highlights regional energy inequity amid Venezuela's ongoing power crisis.
