The federal government decided to conduct a comprehensive technical audit of all power distribution companies (DISCOs) to determine the causes and extent of electricity theft, distribution losses, and overbilling. The decision was made by a committee formed under the prime minister’s directive, co-chaired by Ahad Cheema and Power Minister Sardar Awais Ahmad Khan Leghari. The audit will identify the geographical concentration of theft and technical and commercial losses, enabling the government to take targeted measures.
