QUETTA, Sept 5: The Quetta Electricity Supply Company has held talks with the Iranian government for ensuring uninterrupted power supply to Makran, Qesco Chief Executive Officer Brig Tassaduq Hussain Shah said on Sunday.

"The talks were fruitful and positive results are expected soon," he told elders of Gwadar and Pasni during a visit to the areas.
