LAHORE Punjab PPP president Manzoor Wattoo has said the Punjab chief minister has only prepared feasibility reports for power projects after two and a quarter of years, adding their installation and power generation would never take place and he knows it very well. In a statement, he said deliberate tricking of the masses is distasteful act by any measure, he observed. The PML-N leadership earlier lied to the people in order to get their votes with the undertaking to control loadshedding of electricity in months and now they are lying again on purpose only to complete its tenure by saying that there will be no loadshedding in 2018, he added. The feasibility reports of the dreamy power projects of the Punjab government are in sharp contrast to the CM’s claim to control loadshedding in months failing which he would change his name. He added the Punjab CM should be remorseful for his failure to deliver, adding his unabated and highly misplaced boasting was beyond comprehension. He said people were getting inflated bills regularly of most expensive electricity without its supply. The farmers’ community has been hit the worst because they cannot afford to run their tube wells resulting in affecting their agricultural produces, he added. He demanded that the government must give priority to the agriculture sector which was the backbone of the country’s economy because the country would only be prosperous when farmers would get handsome dividends of their produces. He pointed out that Pakistan’s industrial sector would grow with the growth of the agriculture sector because its industrial sector was agro-based.
