Pakistan's nationwide anti-power theft campaign has recovered more than Rs 132 billion since its launch in September 2023, marking a significant milestone in the government's economic recovery efforts.
Authorities have arrested 87,029 individuals involved in electricity theft across the country, demonstrating the campaign's extensive reach. The operation continues to yield results, with the past week alone seeing the apprehension of 141 additional suspects.
The most recent weekly recovery amounts to Rs 1.09 billion, indicating sustained momentum in the government's drive against power theft. This initiative forms part of broader measures aimed at addressing the country's energy crisis and economic challenges.
Relevant authorities have expressed their commitment to maintaining these operations until the complete elimination of power theft nationwide. The campaign represents a key component of the government's strategy to stabilize the power sector and improve economic conditions.
The crackdown has emerged as one of the government's more successful interventions in the power sector, showing tangible results in both recovery of losses and enforcement actions against illegal connections.
