He claimed that the federal government was reluctant to invest in KP projects and was spending money on expensive power projects in other provinces. He said that the federal government should start power generation projects in KP so the country can overcome the power shortage without putting an additional burden on the public. Pakistan People’s Party leader Senator Bahramand Tangi told Pakistan Today that the present provincial government was unable to secure the net-hydel profit from central government. Tangi added that due to the ‘flawed’ policies of the KP government, it has failed to invest in the province’s hydel resources. Provincial Amir Jamat-e-Islami Senator Mushtaq Ahmad Khan said that at present, the province’s net-hydel profit was more than Rs500 billion under the Kazi formula.
