00:00Mr. Chaudhary, I would like to come to you.
00:02As you can see, the governor of Punjab in Lahore is saying that there are 40 families
00:10who have destroyed this country in the name of these IPPs.
00:15Before this, we heard various statements that the political families of Pakistan
00:20are involved in some way or the other.
00:22Someone's uncle, someone's mother, someone's uncle, someone's nephew, someone's niece.
00:27They are involved in some way or the other.
00:29As Mr. Hafiz just said, the Kanaivans.
00:32In Kanaivans, our elite, of course, are somewhere in every political party.
00:39They have their share, so they protect their interests.
00:44All across, you have been seeing all these matters for decades.
00:48What is the solution to this in your opinion?
00:50What should be the solution to this black hole that Mr. Hafiz just talked about?
00:58Is there a solution in your opinion?
01:00First of all, not everyone believes in the facts.
01:04I spoke to you about this yesterday.
01:09The Minister of Treasury, Ali Farvez Malik,
01:14he says that out of his 2,000 Arabs, only 80 Arabs are private.
01:21The rest are government employees or Chinese.
01:25So this should also be visited a little.
01:28Mr. Hafiz has given a lot of detail on this subject and this crisis.
01:38You have only one thing to say that we don't need your electricity.
01:44You can sell this expensive electricity wherever you want.
01:49Electricity is not being produced and you have to pay for it.
01:51Electricity is not being produced and you have to pay for it.
01:54The plant is shut down and we are paying the Arabs.
01:57What is this? This is a robbery. This is not a business.
02:00This is simply fraudulent transaction.
02:04What is this international or local matter?
02:08Who gave you the license to commit crimes?
02:11Whether you are a ritualist in Pakistan or not, what do we care?
02:17You are killing the people of Pakistan.
02:20We want Pakistani people not to suffer at the hands of IPPs and their facilitators and commission agents.
02:31Period.
02:33Mr. Nagri, you are also asking questions.
02:36Then I will highlight two or three issues and take them to Mr. Hafiz.
02:41I agree with Mr. Chaudhary.
02:44Mr. Chaudhary said that the people who have been involved in this since 1994 have to be punished.
02:54And Mr. Hafiz has said that you can talk to any minister from 1994 to today.
03:00You can talk to any government official.
03:02He will be seen defending this.
03:04So all those people who are defending this, all those people who are involved in this,
03:07all those people who are responsible for this, they should be punished.
03:12And this is the most important thing for a better future for Pakistan.
03:21Hassan.
03:23First of all, electricity is extremely expensive.
03:27As you yourself said, the prime minister has reduced the tariffs on the industry.
03:35But even then, it is not feasible for them to compete in the international market.
03:41That is why many of our businessmen from Karachi or Faisalabad have taken their investments abroad.
03:49And for the last 5-7 years, they have gone to Africa, Bangladesh, and other countries.
03:56I asked them, how did you go to Africa?
04:00They said that even after hiring security, we are business viable.
04:06We can sell our material and products and we have profit.
04:14The cost at which electricity is being produced in Pakistan is not viable for us.
04:22Apart from this, the cost of electricity has increased by 28 billion rupees.
04:26The cost of electricity has increased by 28 billion rupees.
04:31In addition to this, if you look at the agreements you have made,
04:34you have cut the hands of those companies.
04:39The people who have made these agreements, be it the Muslim League Nawaz, People's Party,
04:46be it the people of the Pervez Musharraf era, be it the people of the Imran Khan era,
04:50all of them, as Mr. Haider Naqvi says, criminal cases should be registered against them.
04:55And these people should be in jail.
04:58Because the people are fed up.
05:00The people no longer have the capacity to bear the burden of electricity bills.
05:06I was in Gilgit-Baltistan.
05:08You will see that there are micro hydel power turbines there.
05:12Electricity is being produced there.
05:14By generating electricity through water, I think it costs 4-5 rupees per unit.
05:21And here you are using a unit of 50 rupees plus for residential.
05:26To end this huge difference, we will have to take drastic measures.
05:32And if we don't take them, if the present government doesn't take them,
05:35then that too will be criminal negligence.
05:37Because if we don't do it now, then when will we do it?
