Following non-payment of dues, the Islamabad Electric Supply Company (Iesco) on Monday suspended the power supply to street lights and traffic signals across the capital city.
The power company has suspended electricity to 17 public sector and semi-government departments, including headquarter of the Capital Development Authority (CDA).
The film censor board and office of the anti-narcotics force were also among the departments whose power supply was suspended.
With the suspension of power to the city’s traffic signals, the federal capital’s traffic wardens would have to work a lot harder to maintain the flow of traffic.
The IESCO had been sending notices to these departments for some time over non-payment of dues.
