DI KHAN: Inmates at Central Prison DI Khan suffered a shortage of water as Ramazan kicked off, due to a malfunctioning tube well. The issue has caused great inconvenience to the prisoners, particularly at the time of Sehr and Iftar. It is reported that the DI Khan Grid Station is supplying electricity to all feeders at 80 volts instead of 220 volts. The low voltage has caused the water well in the prison to stop working. Prisoners are not just deprived of drinking water but also water to maintain hygiene. The prison staff and prisoners have protested against the inconvenience and demanded an adequate supply of electricity as well as water.
