KARACHI: The Sindh Assembly’s Special Committee on Energy on Monday directed all power distribution companies (Discos) in the province — with particular emphasis on K-Electric — to present a formal loadshedding schedule within the next 10 days, ensure uninterrupted night-time power supply and take effective steps to curb electricity theft.

The committee warned that failure to comply would result in legal action against the concerned companies.

The committee met at the Sindh Assembly building under the chairmanship of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) MPA Fayyaz Butt, with Sindh Assembly Speaker Awais Qadir Shah also making a special appearance.

The members from parliamentary parties, including the PPP, Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) and Jamaat-i-Islami (JI), participated in the session, which turned tense during the questioning of KE’s Chief Executive Officer Moonis Alvi.
