KE denies KWSB’s stance
KARACHI: K-Electric on Tuesday categorically denied Karachi Water and Sewerage Board (KWSB)’s reports which said there was a major breakdown at the pumping stations due to which water supply to Karachi has been badly affected.Giving some details spokesman KE said all the feeders connected to pumping stations are normal. Previously a load drop occurred at one of the pumping stations but KE would like to clarify that the load drop occurred due to KWSB’s own maintenance work and the drop had nothing to do with KE’s supply.KE claimed KWSB was a defaulter of Rs 27 billion, as always has exaggerated the situation and stopped its water supply to Karachi using the breakdown as an excuse. KE would also ask its media friends to investigate themselves as to why KWSB’s incompetence is kept hidden by many. KWSB blatantly lies about outages everyday now and putting their incompetence on others. This simply states the supply and distribution network of these illegal hydrants is far superior to that of the water board irrespective of the funds it gets through the federal and provincial budgets which is why the people of Karachi are mostly dependant on water tankers.
