K-Electric (KE) has restored power supply to Pakistan Railways after earlier suspending it over unpaid dues of Rs430 million. The electricity provider, frustrated with “multiple reminders and assurances” that were not honoured, stressed that continued supply was “unsustainable without the payments.” The court lifted the stay order on the issue, urging both parties to find a resolution. Negotiations are now underway with senior officials from both KE and Railways present.
