Load shedding hours rise in Karachi

KARACHI: The Karachi Electric Supply Company (KESC) has increased the ongoing power outages by ten hours in the name of gas shortage.

According to reports, up to ten hours of load shedding is being carried out in Malir.

Similarly, 10-12 hours of electricity cuts are being witnessed in Manzoor Colony, Liaquatabad, Landhi and Bilal Colony.

The situation is not so different in other parts of the city either.

A KESC spokesman said that reductions in gas supply have led to this rise of load shedding
