Syed Moonis Abdullah Alvi, the CEO of K-Electric, became irate with legislators from the Sindh Assembly after they questioned him about the city’s hours-long load shedding.
Following what seemed to be a threat from Sindh Interior Minister Zia Lanjar, he made an appearance in the parliamentary committee on Thursday.
Residents of the city have recently taken to the streets to protest hours-long load shedding and a lack of water availability. When the “feel-like temperate” temperature in the city reached 50 degrees Celsius, there were demonstrations of this kind.
The province government ordered the city’s main electrical supplier to stop implementing load shedding at night in the financial center of the nation in June.
