Islamabad: Minister for Planning and Development Ahsan Iqbal Thursday expressed the government's resolve to steer the country out of current challenges.
Talking to the media persons in Islamabad today, he said Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government is responsible for current power outages and inflation in the country.
“The previous government failed to sign long-term contracts for LNG procurement when it was available at cheap rates,” he added.
He regretted that the issue of LNG procurement was rather politicized by the previous government. He said gas-powered electricity plants of 3500 megawatts are closed today due to negligence and incompetence of the PTI government.
The Minister for Planning and Development said the present government is working tirelessly to reduce the difficulties of the masses.
