Earlier in the month, Karachi faced a similar shortfall of 100 million gallons of water due to annual maintenance work by K-Electric at the Dhabeji Station.
In December of last year, the residents in major parts of the city, including Clifton, Gulshan-i-Iqbal, and Liaquatabad faced an acute shortage of water that continued for multiple days.
The city remained short of 150MGD of water for a week after the main burst on University Road, leading not only to water shortage but also a great deal of hardship for commuters and motorists due to the flooding of the main road near Karachi University.
