ISLAMABAD / KARACHI: Prime Minister Nawaz has prepared to fly to Karachi to investigate how heatwave caused thousands of deaths in Sindh.

The Sindh government alleges that the heatwave was exasperated by the power crisis in the country and the federal government has reigned on its election promise of putting out outages within six months, as per reports.

Premier Nawaz Sharif is expected to visit Karachi either on Monday or Tuesday to discuss the heatwave  aftermath and other issues, his office confirmed on Saturday.
