K-Electric has said that K-Electric Allahwala Town losses have risen above 60 percent, while unpaid electricity bills in the Korangi Crossing locality have reached millions of rupees. A spokesperson for the power utility blamed the gap on electricity theft and customers who do not pay their bills. Combined technical and commercial losses in the area have already crossed that high threshold, according to the company.
Theft, unpaid bills and illegal connections
According to the company, residents have kept drawing power through illegal connections, known locally as kundas, and have continued to skip payments even after campaigns meant to cut those links and improve recovery. The spokesperson said those practices drove the shortfall. Technical losses relate to the network itself, while commercial losses cover theft and unpaid bills; together, the utility says, they now exceed 60 percent in Allahwala Town.
Recovery drive with local help
K-Electric said it is coordinating with law-enforcement agencies and local representatives to collect outstanding dues. The utility argued that recovering bills is necessary if the area is to receive a steady electricity supply. Officials framed payment recovery as essential for reliable service, not an optional administrative goal.
How load-shedding is decided
The spokesperson added that how long power cuts last in Allahwala Town depends on the scale of electricity theft and on bill recovery. In the company's telling, K-Electric Allahwala Town losses and supply hours are linked: lower theft and better payment should support more stable electricity, while continued defaults keep pressure on the network. Residents who do pay on time still share an area where overall recovery and theft levels shape the load-shedding schedule.
Aasan alfaaz mein
Allahwala Town, Korangi Crossing mein KE ke mutabiq bijli ka nuqsan 60 percent se zyada ho gaya hai. Yahan lakhon rupay ke bills ada nahi hue aur bijli chori aur kundas ka masla jari hai. KE police aur local representatives ke sath recovery ki koshish kar rahi hai. Jitni chori aur non-payment zyada, utni load-shedding lambi ho sakti hai, company ka kehna hai.
