The repair work on Karachi’s 84-inch water pipeline has been completed, and water supply has now resumed.
On December 20, after weeks of disruption, repairs were finalized, and the Dhabeji Pumping Station began gradually restoring water supply to the city. Officials estimate it will take around 24 hours for supply levels to normalize.
The areas most affected by the shortage included Korangi, Landhi, Shah Faisal Colony, Malir, Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Gulistan-e-Johar, Jamshed Road, Ramswami, Garden, Clifton, and Defense.
The ruptures, which first occurred on December 3, caused an eight-day severe disruption, resulting in the loss of approximately 2.5 billion gallons of water.
Over the 17-day period, Karachi faced a total shortage of more than 4 billion gallons, leaving residents struggling to meet daily water needs, with some areas completely deprived of water.
