The decision came following the session held earlier today between the federal power division and Karachi’s sole power distributor K Electric.
The sources confirmed that the session approved 1,200MW to Karachi post-April instead of a present supply of 800MW, however, the agreement for the development of additional power supply has yet to be penned.
