The frustration among citizens has reached a boiling point due to persistent unannounced power outages. The situation took a critical turn in Al-Falah Siddiq Goth, where residents have been enduring a continuous power outage for the past three days.
In a desperate bid to draw attention to their plight, the residents of Al-Falah Siddiq Goth took to the streets, blocking the crucial Malir 15 road, which connects Kala Board to the airport. This roadblock has significantly disrupted traffic, causing inconvenience to commuters and raising concerns among local authorities.
Residents, holding placards and chanting slogans, expressed their anger and demanded an immediate resolution to the ongoing power crisis. “We have been without electricity for three days now,” said one of the protestors. “Our children can’t study, and our daily lives have been severely impacted. We had no choice but to come out and protest.”
The unannounced power outages have not only affected the daily routines of the residents but have also raised safety concerns, particularly at night. The protestors are calling on the relevant authorities to address the issue urgently and restore electricity to their area.
Local officials have acknowledged the situation and assured the residents that efforts are underway to resolve the power outage. However, the residents have vowed to continue their protest until their electricity is restored.
This roadblock at Malir 15 highlights the growing frustration among Karachi’s citizens regarding the frequent and prolonged power outages. The incident underscores the urgent need for a more reliable power supply and better communication from utility providers to prevent such disruptions in the future.
