Around 500,000 households in desert, hilly and riverine areas of Sindh, whose members live in extreme poverty, are completely deprived of electricity or any other form of alternative energy that could otherwise be used to energise their homes.
Sindh Energy and Planning & Development Minister Syed Nasir Hussain Shah stated this on Monday while talking to media persons at the Sindh Assembly building.
He informed the media that solar systems would be provided by the provincial government to energise such deprived households in the province. The Sindh energy department had started taking steps to serve the deserving households deprived of electricity as per the election manifesto of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), he said. He vowed that the new Sindh government of the PPP would take practical steps to fulfil the poll campaign promises of the PPP.
