KARACHI: Multiple areas continue to be without electricity after a major power outage hit the metropolitan Monday night.

The neighbourhoods affected by the power breakdown include Garden, Clifton, Gulistan-e-Jauhar, PECHS, Malir Halt, Quaidabad, Landhi and other areas.

According to a K-Electric spokesperson, a high-tension line tripped due to humidity, causing the breakdown.

However, KE teams are working to resolve the issue and provide electricity from alternate sources.

“Our teams are working to resolve the fault(s) causing the power outage,” the spokesperson said, adding that electricity supply would be resumed soon.
