Adviser to Chief Minister Sindh Rashid Hussain Rabbani and Waqar Mehdi condemned the K-Electric for unannounced and prolonged blackouts in the city during the holly moth of Ramadan. In a joint statement issued from PPP Media Cell Sindh, they said that since the K-Electric is federally controlled by the federal government has utterly failed to provide any relief to the masses especially the people of Sindh during its past three years.
On the other hand, the tall and boastful claims made by Federal Minister for water and Power Khawaja Asif have also been exposed which is a candid clear manifest of his grudge against the people of Sindh. They said the tyranny of power blackouts in Sindh and inflated electricity bills in past three years is now a sad tale in the history of the country while K-Electric is on a mission of creating unrest and violence in Sindh and perhaps the federal government of PML-N is waiting to see a huge turmoil in the city. The people of Karachi have since 2001 been passing tedious and painful time as the power utility has writhed their nerves by snatching their comforts and joys by inflated electricity bills, unannounced and prolonged power blackouts and impeding the water supply, they added.
Karachi Electric is using variety of tactic to mint more money from the consumers in the garb of feeder tripping and technical faults. The situation is very painful in different areas of Karachi this holy month of Ramadan as the Karachi Electric is avenging on the citizens.-PR
