Jamaat-e-Islami has staged sit-in on Sunday outside Sindh Governor House on load-shedding and over-billing by the Karachi Electric.
JI Karachi Ameer Naeem-ur-Rehman said while talking to local news channel ‘Geo News’ said “We want the authorities to make up for the losses borne by [the people of] Karachi.Load-shedding can end as the plant capacity is sufficient enough.”
He added they also want K-Electric to put an end to over-billing. “The money that they have looted from people should be returned.”
The JI Karachi ameer said they were not protesting for the sake of politics.

The protesters also spent the night outside the Governor House.
However, the spokesperson of K-Electric refuted the claims of over-billing.
The JI workers had protested a few weeks back over the same issue outside the head office of K-Electric. They had demonstrated in a unique way as the protesters had tethered bulls at the site, to represent the inefficiency of the Sindh and federal government and the power supply company.
