Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi has issued a strong directive to combat over-billing across Pakistan. He emphasizes a zero-tolerance approach, ensuring no leniency towards any form of overcharging.
Naqvi’s orders entail rigorous action against all perpetrators of over-billing, regardless of their status or location within Pakistan. He stresses that under no circumstance will over-billing be overlooked.
Additionally, Naqvi urges authorities to escalate efforts in combating electricity theft. He demands utmost efficiency from officers of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) in curbing over-billing and identifying power thieves.
Moreover, the interior minister assures enhanced security for FIA personnel, particularly in sensitive regions of Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Importantly, recent reports from the Power Division reveal a staggering additional collection of Rs 225 billion in electricity bills annually from local industries across Pakistan.
