K-Electric, in collaboration with the law-enforcement agencies, continues a crackdown against electricity thieves and defaulters. Recently, the power utility conducted operations in Bin Qasim and its surrounding areas.
A total of 871 illegal connections (kunda), weighing 2,105 kilograms, were removed from K-Electric's infrastructure. These illegal connections were supplying electricity to 700 households, resulting in the theft of approximately 100,000 units annually.
In another operation in the Bugti Goth area of Bin Qasim, more than 300 illegal connections were removed, and 200 kilograms of wires were dismantled. In another operation in Old Hassan Panhwar Goth, 250 illegal connections, weighing 445 kilograms, were removed from K-Electric's infrastructure.
The illegal kunda connections are installed by bypassing the network's safety protocols which pose risks to K-Electric's infrastructureand the safety of the citizens.
