KARACHI: The power supply to 11 major shrines of Karachi was shut down as the Auqaf Department remained failed to pay the electricity bills.
The KE has written a letter to Administer Auqaf three months ago about the possible disconnecting of power supply due to non-payment of pending bills.
According to details, the KE has shut down the power to major shrines as Auqaf Department failed to pay more than 30 million rupees.

Similarly, Miran Data Mazar located at Nishtar Road is a defaulter of Rs 1.7 million.
The other shrines of the metropolis include Zinda Shah Shrine, Achi Qabar, Jamal Shah Bukhari and others.
