In ulluon ki aqal airport aur motorway aur flyover say agay jati hi nhn.
Why did you waste $250 million on an airport in Gwadar when the people there don't even have reliable electricity or water.
Just vanity projects so you can say ham nay iftitah kia.
I still remember Ahsan Iqbal's statement, PTI nay aik bhi naya bijli ka mansooba nhn lagaya. When our problem is not of generation but of transmission. Talk about priorities.
Tbh, he is right
We need a lot more energy than we currently have to keep up with demand (I know we're energy positive rn but just to keep up with future demand we need a lot more energy projects)
transmission is a major issue alongside import baaed energy production (gas, oil, imported coal etc) but that doesn't mean we don't need electricity projects (solar, nuclear, hydro, coal)
We need a whole pipeline of these cheap energy projects not for today but for future
You need to do both (which PTI was doing with hydro projects- so he is technically incorrect even in that assertion)
I like Ahsan Iqbal but he was being partisan when he made that claim
Both PDM and PTI are/ were trying to fix our energy sector and both took steps in the right direction but it'll take a good 10 years for us to get out of this mess but looking at what's in the pipeline, I am positive we'll start producing cheap energy over a period of time (as long as we fix our transmission problems)
For the time being we need to focus on IT, agriculture, labor intensive assembly, mining to get by till we fix our energy sector in the next decade or so
