ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister for Power Khurram Dastagir said on Sunday that electricity has been restored in most flood-affected areas of Sindh, reported local media.
According to a notification issued by the power division, the power minister said that loadshedding has been abolished in affected areas so that water pumps can work uninterrupted.
