#Karachiblackout: K-Electric customers unleash fury on social media amid outages

For the second time in a week, faults in the 220 Mega Watt (MW) extra high tension power line from Bin Qasim power station left swathes of Karachi without electricity on Sunday.

The K-Electric supply company said that due to 99 per cent humidity in Pipri, the 220MW Piri-ICI power line was tripping repeatedly, disrupting supply to 10 out of 64 grids.

But residents of Karachi weren't buying it with thousands unleashing their wrath on social media.

Some were simply not buying the latest excuse by K-Electric

Some found a 'dark' sense of humour  

Others just begged for mercy and questioned life altogether 

Let's not forget the conspiracy theorists 

And while K-Electric's team is extremely social media savvy, the utility company had its hands full on Sunday with thousands of Twitter and Facebook users tagging the company's social media accounts. Somehow, we feel this isn't going to be the last time either.
