K-Electric on Thursday stated that more than 1,500 new low-cost metres were installed in Allah Bux Goth in Gadap. It said that the initiative facilitated more than 10,000 consumers. It dismantled an illegal kunda network in the process and replaced it with kunda-resistant Aerial Bundled Cables (ABCs).

The KE spokesman said Allah Bux Goth was previously menaced by illegal connections and rampant power-theft, which caused faults and tripping in adjoining areas.

"Through this initiative, K-Electric has strengthened reliable power supply to the residents of Allah Bux Goth," he said, noting broad appreciation from KE consumers. The spokesman said positive response enabled KE to uplift such communities and inspired KE teams to ensure that the ongoing Project Ujala continues at full pace in other parts of the metropolis in which K-Electric is continuously installing Aerial Bundled Cables to reduce losses, theft and eventually load-shedding.

The KE has completed similar projects in several other areas, including Qalandarabad, Mughal Hazara Goth, Junejo Town, Rozi Goth and Chishti Nagar, he concluded.
