Bahria admin rolls out a circular which says, “On June 8, Bahria Town’s administration announced a three-hour power outage.

Furthermore, residents will be facing three hours of power outages. A power outage may lead to water shortages. “Earlier, Bahria Town used to be among the nicest areas to reside in, but circumstances have started changing,” said Ishaq Ahmed, a dissident. The administration must make every attempt to settle the residents’ issues.
