Bilawal also blamed the Punjab government for not planning adequately and mentioned that the PPP plans to deliver solar power to the less developed areas of Sindh. The relief, he said, is being provided to those who use less than 200 units of electricity.
He expressed hope that if the PPP gets a chance at the federal level, it will address the current issues through public-private partnerships.
Bilawal further said that they wanted a permanent solution to the energy problem.
Bilawal emphasized the need for a sustainable solution for electricity and mentioned that they are working to provide relief through green energy. He also knocked the PTI government for its decisions that led to inflation and an increase in petrol and food items.
