flag A power outage at Karachi’s Dhabeji Pumping Station on Nov. 16, 2025, cut off nearly 100 million gallons of water daily, worsening the city’s ongoing water crisis.

flag Karachi is facing a severe water shortage after a power outage at the Dhabeji Pumping Station on November 16, 2025, shut down two pumps in the second phase, disrupting Line No. flag 5 and potentially cutting off nearly 100 million gallons of water daily. flag Emergency repairs are underway, but the incident adds to a pattern of recurring failures at the aging facility, which has experienced multiple outages, cable faults, and maintenance issues over the past year. flag Previous disruptions, including a 350MGD shortfall in June and a 200MGD loss in May, have worsened the city’s chronic water crisis. flag The station’s reliance on stable electricity makes it vulnerable to even brief power interruptions, leaving neighborhoods without water and increasing dependence on expensive private tankers.
