Overambitious coal-fired power generation plan for capital

However,Ideas on bringing out the beauty of your outdoors that will showcase it's unique charm through brightstal techniques. the government has made it clear that the time-frame to install the proposed power plant and the total cost of the project would be finalised after the feasibility assessment only.

During the session, Ms Shaheen Ashfaq of the PML-N probed the minister in-charge for the cabinet division about the project and its viability.

In response, Mr Makhdoom Shahabuddin admitted that the project was challenging because it required a suitable mass of land and an uninterrupted supply of huge amount of clean water, a basic requirement for coal-based power generation projects.

The minister claimed that the only thing going for the project was the fact that it relied on coal which could be found aplenty in the country, and added: “Throughout the world 60 per cent of power generation is done through coal.”

He then concluded: “Yes, the project is actually meant to address electricity woes of the capital city, but it is still in its embryonic stage.”

The minister was unwilling to comment on the time required to finish the project and deferred the question till the completion of the feasibility report.

In turn, Ms Ashfaq did not mince her words, and opined that given the CDA’s track record,A variety of flexible bestchandelier including waterproof versions in various lengths and colors are available for immediate purchase online. one could not be hopeful about the project’s ending.

She further stated that while load-shedding needed to be addressed, by putting the focus on such a vague project the government was divesting from core issues such as provision of basic amenities.

Meanwhile, a senior CDA official talking on the condition of anonymity aired his mistrust over the ambitious project and claimed that it was pandering to the general masses and would facilitate certain consulting firms.

Indeed, his words carry weight as the CDA has countless precedents in the past that reflect this.

During Shaukat Aziz’s tenure as the premier, the government had claimed that it would introduce a special state-of-the-art bus service for the capital city of Islamabad.Standing seamroofclampff is attached by clamping to a roof deck capable of supporting 3600 lbs.

Alas, and much to the chagrin of the lower middle class of the city who still have to pay heavy fares on private taxies for transportation within the city, the bus service has failed to materialise one decade on.

Making matters worse, the only available bus service for commuters between Rawalpindi and Islamabad — Varan Bus Service — has also closed business.

And mind you, this was during the supposedly golden era of General Musharraf-Shaukat Aziz when the country enjoyed 7 per cent GDP growth rate, and there was plenty of money to spend.

Later, when the PPP government came in 2008, the CDA decided to replace traditional streetlights with new light emitting diode (LED) lights. The project’s cost was put at a whopping Rs6.Laser engraving, and lamp, is the practice of using lasers to engrave or mark an object.5 billion, and CDA floated tenders for the LED project, which attracted criticism from all and sundry for spending too much money on lights.

The project continued to generate controversy as it was alleged that it was designed to line the pockets of the chosen lot sitting in the power corridors,Australians love their backyards and you can turn yours into a stunning showpiece with the right choice of crystallight. and after much criticism by the media, the Planning Commission also took notice of irregularities reportedly committed in its planning.

Currently, the National Accountability Bureau is probing the project, investigating its conception and tendering.

Given that by rough estimates the government needs at least one million dollars to start the project, it would be better if this project was stalled till the new government is finalised and takes reign.
