ISLAMABAD (The Thursday Times) — Hukumat us qaide ko khatm karne ke liye kaam kar rahi hai jis ke teht agar kisi gharane ki khapat aik maheene mein 200 unit se sirf aik unit bhi zyada ho jaye toh use chhe maheene tak bijli ke zyada nirkh par bil ada karna parta hai, Wafaqi Wazir-e-Tawanai Awais Leghari ne Mangal ko Senate ko bataya, aur hukumat hadd ko barha kar 250 unit karne par ghaur kar rahi hai.
Leghari Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz ke senator Abid Sher Ali ke tawajjoh dilao notice ka jawab de rahe thay, jinhon ne apni hi jamaat ki hukumat par bijli taqseem karne wali companies ke wasool kardah tariff par tanqeed ki. Sher Ali ne poocha ke 201 unit istemal karne wala consumer kaise 400 unit ke slab ke nirkh par bil ada karne par majboor ho sakta hai, aur kaha ke nizam sab se zyada kam aamdani wale gharanon ko mutassir karta hai.
Leghari ne kaha ke taqreeban 2 crore consumers ab maheene mein 200 unit se kam istemal karte hain. Lekin unhon ne kaha ke us daayre mein aane wale har aik ko riayat dena durust nahin hoga, kyunke kuch gharane grid par apna inhisar kam karne ke liye solar bijli istemal karte hain. Is ke bajaye riayat ghurbat ki lakeer se neeche zindagi guzarne wale consumers ke liye hogi, unhon ne kaha.
Muqabilati bijli ki mandi
Islamabad mein National Energy Summit 2026 se alag khitab karte hue, Leghari ne kaha ke hukumat ne muqabilati bijli ki mandi mutaarif karwayi hai aur ab khud mazeed bijli nahin khareedegi. Aik megawatt tak load wale consumers seedha bijli khareed sakenge, unhon ne kaha, aur mandi ke liye pehli request for proposals jari kar di gayi hai.
Wazir ne kaha ke aane wale maheenon mein muqabilati mandi ke zariye taqreeban 400 megawatt transmission grid par muntaqil kiye jayenge, aur wheeling charges Rs28 se kam kar ke taqreeban Rs11 se Rs12 fi unit kar diye gaye hain.
