KESC appreciates efforts of ‘fearless and dutiful’ employees

The Karachi Electric Supply Company (KESC) appreciates the efforts of its “fearless and dutiful” employees, who have been performing their responsibilities despite the subversive campaign hatched by miscreants. According to a press release issued by the KESC, The CEO of power utility, Tabish Gauhar paid rich tributes to the untiring efforts of the silent majority of employees who continue to work by risking their security in order to provide relief to consumers.
He said that these employees are the real assets of the utility and the management would always remember their contributions towards the survival of the company in the most difficult times in the KESC’s history. He urged the absent and inactive employees to follow the footsteps of their brave colleagues and join hands with the positive forces to defeat miscreants and hooligans and to return the lights of the metropolitan city of Karachi.
He said no rules of trade union allowed destruction and sabotage and all the sane elements of the society needed to condemn such negative activities which had been causing undue hardships for consumers. According to the statement, miscreants continued to forcefully close all the important offices of KESC on Friday including State Life Building and Power House to stop the employees from working.
They stopped repairing faults and forcefully prevented the fixing of neutral leads that could have removed the risk of damage to electrical appliances due to fluctuation. The KESC has demanded that the government should provide its employees with a fear-free atmosphere in order to relieve the citizens from undue delays in repair of faults and prolonged outages caused by subversive activities. Action needs to be taken against miscreants who are openly violating laws of the land.
The KESC thanked the citizens of Karachi who have stood by the utility in these trying times – not to bow to the unlawful and illegal pressure being created by the disruptive elements. The handful of miscreants has been trying to sabotage the company and hijack the power system of the city to serve their personal gains, directly in conflict with the public interest. The Old Ravians Cooperative Housing Society, in a message, appreciated the efforts and courage of KESC management to deal with the subversive and sabotaging campaign.
