The Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) has announced a suspension of gas supply from 8 am to 8 pm in several areas of Karachi on Sunday to facilitate the installation of a new gas distribution pipeline.
The distribution from Azeempura to Jam Sadiq Bridge will be carried out at two key points that will impact all sectors of Korangi, including both industrial and domestic areas, as well as DHA and its adjoining areas.
Among the areas for suspension include Defence View, Manzoor Colony, Akhtar Colony, Kashmir Colony, Mehmoodabad, Azam Basti, Qayyumabad, DHA Phase 2 Extension, Phase 4, Phase 5 and Extension, Phase 7 and Extension, and Phase 8, including Creek Vista and Emaar.
Residents and businesses in these areas are advised to make necessary arrangements to mitigate the impact of the 12-hour suspension.
Earlier this week, SSGC turned active in curbing gas theft and conducting raids in Sindh and Balochistan.
They removed 770 illegal connections and lodged FIRs against offenders.
In Karachi, 570 illegal domestic connections were dismantled in Federal B Area and Liaquatabad.
An FIR was also lodged against a bakery owner in North Karachi for illegally connecting a high-voltage generator directly to the gas line.
