KARACH: The Muttahida Qaumi Movement has demanded of the president and the prime minister to take notice of what it said was an artificial power and water crisis in Karachi.
In a press conference on Monday, Haider Abbas Rizvi said that 90 percent of gas from the Sui Souther Gas Company Limited was being given to the Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited.
He expressed serious concerns over the tug of war between the SSGC and the Karachi Electric Supply Company Limited.
He demanded of the president, interim prime minister, Sindh interim chief minister and Governor to take notice of power and gas crisis.
He said that there was an old dispute between the SSGC and the KESC and called on Sindh Governor Ishratul Ebad Khan to broker a deal between the two entities.
“Entire nation is facing energy crisis and the MQM will extend its full cooperation to the new government in overcoming the crisis.”
Rizvi said the water and energy crisis in Karachi had been created artificially with economic and political motives.
