The power outage across Pakistan last night tripped the entire transmission, transmission, and distribution system of 22,000 MW, causing darkness in cities and areas of Sindh, Punjab, Balochistan, and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
The power transmission system is undergoing gradual restoration work following a sudden overnight power outage across the country due to a sudden zero frequency, but a large portion is still without power. While people across the country reacted to the power breakdown, showbiz personalities were also seen expressing their views.
Singer Momina Mustehsan also reacted in a tweet on the social networking site Twitter. In her tweet, she wrote in a humorous manner that there is a problem in our wires, while the singer added in her tweet that apart from jokes, I hope everyone is safe.
“The Fault in Our Taars” 😂 #blackout #electricity lol. Jokes apart, hope everyone is staying safe.
