imagine if we had built this before..just the dam portion..we would have done miracles..its credit goes to army generals asim bajwa who is taking initiative after being given charge,political govt was only wasting time
WB has fundedThe most important thing is dam. That stores water. Water is life. Water is economy as it fuels our produce. Water is everything. Floods every year would end.
World Bank is not funding it. Everyone has tried their best but they are not ready to fund it.
Hope a good audit team sit on top.WB has funded
1. Tarbela dam extension 4(full equity)
2. Dasu dam (full equity)
3. and agreed to fund pathan conditionally
4. tarbela extention 5
honestly, WB is giving Pakistan more funds as compared to Bangladesh and india..probably due to uncle sam blessing
it backed off bhassha because that would have opened a pandora box..i.e to fund a project in disputed area
yes dasu was held because of land dispute that jirga helped to solveFor years project victim of red tape and intra-provincial politics .. Great work Imran Khan.
Hope a good audit team sit on top.
Seriously .... we are chest thumping Ghairat mand beggars .. all ends up VAT and some new taxes..yes dasu was held because of land dispute that jirga helped to solve
bhasha was withheld as govt didn't want to spend even a penny
Munda was held again due to funding..
issue Pakistan has never tried to build any dam with indigenous funding it always wanted 100% foreign funding which isn't possible everytime..
borrowing from international lenders for developmental projects isnt chest thumbing/bad..getting dictated by IMF in failing to do the former is..Seriously .... we are chest thumping Ghairat mand beggars .. all ends up VAT and some new taxes..
its credit goes to army generals asim bajwa who is taking initiative after being given charge,political govt was only wasting time
this was true for 1970s..stupid decision
they ditched kalabagh dam and went for DB which is far up north
construction cost and time is 4x more vs kalabagh
and there is no irrigation benefit u can take from DB except it being a water reservoir upstream for Tarbela
but, something is better than nothing ,,, atleast ,,, !
