Karachi’s water supply from Hub Dam is to remain suspended for two days and citizens are advised to store water and use it wisely.

On Friday, the Karachi Water and Sewerage Corporation (KW&SC) announced an interruption in water supply from the Hub Dam on Saturday and Sunday (February 24 and 25) due to K-Electric’s maintenance work at one of its gird stations.

“The maintenance work will be carried out on the Valika Grid Station for electricity on February 24 and 25,” the KW&SC said in a statement.

The maintenance work will start at 8 am on February 24 and continue until 6 pm the next day — the overall duration of the shutdown will be 48 hours.
