Karachi: People in Karachi city of Pakistan are facing a massive power outrage and still power has not been restored in several parts of the city.

The electricity remains suspended in Baldia Ittehad Town, Qaim Khani Colony, Orangi, Shantinagar, Korangi, Malir Shamsi Society, and Shah Faisal Colony, reports The News International.

Power cuts have been reported from several areas of Lyari ever since the electricity breakdown occurred on Saturday afternoon.

According to the official statement, KE’s 220 kV Extra High Tension network on Saturday afternoon experienced tripping along with the 220 kV NKI-Baldia 1&2 circuit, reports the newspaper.

"NTDC and KE teams immediately responded by coordinating closely for the restoration of the circuits," read the statement.

"The damaged busbar was isolated and alternate busbars were utilised to bring BQPS 1 back online," it said.

"Power from BQPS 2, NKI, and IPPS is being supplied to the city whereas a full load of BQPS 1 is expected to be added into the system in the next few hours," KE had added.
