A large part of Mirpurkhas city experienced a power outage following faults in several HESCO (Hyderabad Electric Supply Company) feeders caused by torrential monsoon rains. Among the affected feeders is the Umeed Brew feeder, leaving numerous residents without electricity.

The heavy downpour has exacerbated existing issues with the aging power infrastructure, causing disruptions for businesses and homeowners alike. HESCO crews are working to restore power, but the ongoing difficult weather conditions are hindering their efforts. The extent of the damage to the power grid is still being assessed.

Residents are facing hardship amid the power outage, with many relying on backup generators or enduring the intense heat without fans or air conditioning.
