Shehbaz Sharif said he was thankful to the government of China for materializing the project.


Islamabad: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif Friday thanked China as the first power plant under China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) project became operational.
“It gives me immense satisfaction to announce that the 720 mega watt hydal power plant in Karot has started functioning,” he said in a tweet.
Shehbaz Sharif said he was thankful to the government of China for materializing the project.
He mentioned that the project could not gain momentum during around four years of the previous government.
مجھے یہ کہتے ہوئے بڑی خوشی ہے کہ 720 میگاواٹ کے کروٹ پن بجلی منصوبے نے کام شروع کر دیا ہے۔ گزشتہ حکومت کے پونے چار سال میں اس منصوبے پر کوئی خاطر خواہ پیش رفت نہ ہو سکی۔ یہ CPEC کے تحت مکمل ہونے والا پن بجلی کا پہلا منصوبہ ہے۔ میں اس منصوبے میں تعاون پر چینی حکومت کا شکرگزار ہوں۔
