  "account": "The Islamabad Electric Supply Company (IESCO) has announced that three cities - Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and Jhelum - will experience electricity outages on Sunday, November 8. During this period, some areas may face up to 10 hours without power. Most 11kV feeders will be offline for annual maintenance, construction, and grid transformer upkeep from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. The longest outage is expected in Rawalpindi Cantt, where the Islamabad Feed Mill feeder near Baga Sheikhan will be off from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Other feeders, like the New GHQ in Rawalpindi Cantt, will also be off for longer durations, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Rawalpindi's Chaklala-area feeders will be offline from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. IESCO has apologized for the inconvenience and requested consumers' cooperation. This maintenance program has previously caused power cuts in the region on November 7 and November 4.",
