Electricity cuts in turn crippled Karachi s water supply system in Karachi.
(Web Desk) - Death toll from ongoing intense heat wave across many parts of southern Sindh province has reached 157 as another 11 persons died in Karachi on Monday morning.
Dr Seemi Jamali, the head of the emergency department at state-run Jinnah Hospital confirmed the deaths.
Electricity cuts in turn crippled Karachi s water supply system, hampering the pumping of millions of gallons of water to consumers.
Keeping in view the current unbearable situation of Karachi, the provincial government had imposed a state of emergency at all hospitals, cancelling leave for doctors and other medical staff and increasing stocks of medical supplies.
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has warned electric supply companies that he would not tolerate power outages during Ramazan, an official in Sharif s office said.
Edhi Welfare Organisation, Pakistan s largest charity, said their mortuary had been packed to capacity with heatwave deaths and other casualties as 150 bodies were placed there.
Twitterati have taken to the social media platform and showed exasperation on the ongoing worst situation of Karachi. #KarachiWeepsGovtSleeps is currently trending on Twitter.
