Enraged people went on rampage, burned tires and pelted stones on vehicles in several areas of Karachi as they vent their anger against the record long spell of power outage. The latest rollback left the city without power for nearly 36 hours. The outage followed torrential rains that has mercilessly lashed the city for the last two days. Several areas of this sprawling mega-metropolis city including New Karachi, Buffer Zone, North Karachi, Gulbahar, Liaquatabad, Garden, Gulistan-e-Jauhar, Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Defense and Clifton remained without electricity for the last 36 hours, which also triggered a shortage of water in the areas. |
