The Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) has achieved a significant milestone by recovering more than Rs 7.81 million from 81 deceased defaulters in five districts - Lahore, Sheikhupura, Nankana Sahib, Kasur, and Okara - as part of its ongoing recovery campaign.

During the 225th day of the campaign, various Superintending Engineers (SEs) played a crucial role in collecting substantial amounts from defaulters in different circles. SE Nisar Sarwar managed to retrieve Rs 0.83 million from 12 defaulters in the Northern Circle, while SE Umar Bilal recovered Rs 0.71 million from 06 defaulters in the Eastern Circle. SEs in the Central, South, Nankana, Sheikhupura, Okara, and Kasur Circles also made noteworthy collections from defaulters.

By successfully retrieving substantial amounts from defaulters across multiple districts, LESCO has not only strengthened its financial position but also ensured a fair distribution of electricity costs among all consumers.
