The City of Lights and The City of Darkness
Karachi is the largest city in the country both area wise as well as population-wise. Currently, citizens are facing a serious issue in the form of a shortage of electricity. Though it is a problem faced by most of the population in the country, the worst affected is the city of Karachi; a city of nearly 30 million. Here many people spend sleepless nights because of warm and humid weather and the unavailability of electricity. Moreover, the city is facing a serious issue because of a power breakdown after heavy rains. Although the electricity in some areas was restored, still some people are living without electricity. On the other hand, load shedding for 6-8 hours has compelled the people to strive for water. Some areas are worst hit by the crisis including Lyari, Korangi, Landhi, and New Karachi. Thus, the government should restore the power immediately for all the people of Karachi that they could be better facilitated.
