Ministry of Water and Power is supplying 650MW to Karachi despite difficulties and that the agreement has expired and no new arrangement has been made so far. This is being to alleviate the sufferings of the inhabitants of Karachi. The electricity situation of the entire country is being monitored continuously except for system constraints.

Although there are high losses areas where our recovery is very minimal and electricity theft is high , we are still trying to maintain a level of electricity supply considering the month of Ramazan".
