Minister Hector Navarro denied rumours spread about suspension
of night classes as part of the country`s energy saving plan.
He said the opposition groups was spreading the rumors
and added the school period 2009-2010 will be reactivated from

We need to change consumption trends in order to curb
them and eliminate the waste of electricity, he said during a
