In continuation of the ongoing theft crackdown, the Secretary Power Division , Mr. Rashid Langrial is set to inaugurate “ The Mardan Model” . The main aim of the initiative is “Zero-Theft, Zero Load-shedding Mardan”. The reason for selecting Mardan for this is initiative is that it was identified on national level due to 56% losses on 17 feeders and a recovery shortfall of Rs. 1.2 billion. With the cooperation of district administration and 48 teams of PESCO, the accountability was strengthened and FIRs were lodges rigorously to eliminate losses and theft. Today the losses on 17 feeders are reduced to 13% from 56% and are projected to be 8% by the end of October and the financial loss has been reduced by 85%. The district is moving to incorporation of Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) meters and citizen monitoring plan.
