Dhabeji maintenance to disrupt water supply in several Karachi areas tomorrow

A KWSC spokesperson said K-Electric (KE) had notified the water utility of a scheduled 14-hour power shutdown at Dhabeji Grid Station, from 10am to midnight on November 13.

During this period, nine of the pumping station's 21 pumps will remain out of operation, affecting water supplies to Landhi, Korangi, Malir, Shah Faisal, Gulshan, Clifton, Saddar and Lyari.

Several other areas, including Jinnah, Chanesar, Liaquatabad and North Karachi, will also experience disruptions. Water supply to Nazimabad and Gulberg will be partially affected, while the Landhi and Sherpao hydrants will remain closed.

The spokesperson said six of the nine affected pumps would resume operations after KE completed its maintenance work. This would restore normal water supplies to most affected areas, except Landhi, Korangi, Malir and Shah Faisal.
