Speaking to a private news channel, he assured that significant progress has been made in addressing critical power sector issues and that consumers will soon benefit from more affordable electricity.
Leghari emphasised the government's dedication to making electricity accessible to all, highlighting the formation of a committee to facilitate the transition of three IPPs to indigenous Thar coal.
