CHITRAL: Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi on Sunday inaugurated first unit of Golen Gol power project in Chitral.
Addressing the inaugural ceremony, Abbasi said continuity of democratic polity is indispensable for progress of the country.
He said the people of the country voted former premier Nawaz Sharif in power in 2013, which proved to be in their favour.
They would again decide in June, this year, which party they wanted to elect, he said and expressed hope that they would make the right decision.
He said Pakistan has been brought back on the right track.
The premier said that more development work has been carried out in Chitral than any other part of the country under the PML-N government, and Lowari Tunnel was an example of it.
After the construction of Lowari Tunnel, Golen Gol power project, many other development projects were in the pipeline, the premier announced.
First unit of the project with generation capacity of thirty six megawatt is exclusively meant to provide electricity to Chitral town and adjacent areas.
This quantum of electricity is three times more than the present requirements of Chitral and will also cater to the surge in electricity demand in future.
