He emphasized on finding the pitfalls that led to the power breakdown, with clearly fixing the responsibility. Khurram Dastgir said the entire transmission system was safe despite such a massive power breakdown. A power plant located in the Uch area was functional, and power supply to some areas of Balochistan and southern Punjab had already been restored. The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) also took serious notice of the countrywide power breakdown, directing the NTDC to submit a detailed report in this regard. He said the electricity supply was improving gradually in the Islamabad region, including Jhelum, and Karachi as well.
