Karachi will face 100 mln gallons of water shortage due to power breakdown at Dhabeji pumping station.
According to details, a major power breakdown occurred at the Dhabeji Pumping Station after midnight.
The power failure struck at 12:20 AM, due to which Line No. 5 of the water supply system was impacted at two different points. The K-Electric power outage led to operational disruptions at the station, hampering pumping operations.
In response, the Karachi Water and Sewerage Board authorities immediately initiated repair and restoration work, which is expected to be completed within 36 hours.
During this period, Karachi will face a shortfall of approximately 100 million gallons of water, the spokesperson added.
Efforts are underway to minimize the impact and ensure swift restoration of water supply across the affected areas.
