KARACHI:

The spokesperson of Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan has expressed deep concern over power breakdown in Karachi and across the country.

The spokesman said in a statement that the power breakdown of the electricity had revealed the reality of the power generation of K Electric.

K-Electric should answer how Karachi lost electricity due to the disconnection of the electricity provided by the federal government, he said.

"Surprisingly, K-Electric supplies expensive electricity to Karachi to generate electricity from oil from its grid station," he pointed out. "At the same time, the entire transmission system of K-Electric is based on the electricity received from the federal government, so what is the justification for the expensive electricity?"

The spokesman further said that the business and everyday life of the entire city has stopped, which has caused damage to the country's economy.

K Electric's greed for money has caused irreparable damage to the country's economy.

The city which generates the highest revenue in the whole of Pakistan has been left at the mercy of a fraudulent entity like K Electric is unfair.

The spokesperson demanded that the federal government take notice of this fraud of the K Electric administration and cancel the license of K Electric and give District Vise license to other companies so that competition increases and quality and affordable electricity can be provided to the people of Karachi.
