Energy Minister Hammad Azhar has said that the federal government will provide an additional 200-megawatt of electricity to K-Electric so that the people of Karachi could get rid of load-shedding.
On his social media handle, the minister said on Thursday that earlier the federal government was providing 350-MW electricity to K-Electric.
However, now it has been decided to further enhance 200-MW supply to the K-Electric, he said.
The announcement comes as different areas of Karachi face prolonged and unannounced power outages, adding to citizens' misery amid scorching heat and humidity.
