ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 19th Oct, 2018 ) :A well-known Pakistani nuclear scientist and former Chairman Thar-Coal project, Dr Samar Mubarak Mand, on Friday expressed the hope that he will regain glory after finalization of the reports being audited now-a-days. The Sindh government had got approval from Federal government for making the cheap electricity through Thar-Coal project, he stated while talking to a private news channel.
Dr Samar Mubarak Mand said a huge quantity of coal was available in Sindh province, he further stated.
This was an 8.9 billion rupees project, which should have been completed in a stipulated time frame.
In the first phase, we have spent 3.7 billion rupees to produce cheap electricity, he revealed.
The project had started functioning for about 9000 hours, and we successfully managed to generate electricity through utilization of coal, he told.
We had hired an expert for achieving progress from this mega project but due to unavailability of funds, the project could not continue or produce the expected results, he added.
To a question about closing of this important project, he said the project was under investigation and being audited, adding that we will win the case as no anomaly could be found in this Thar-Coal project.
"We are confident that audit team could not find any misappropriation or irregularities in fund utilization, " he said.
The decision of this case would be in our favour, he said.
To another question, he said the Thar-Coal project could help produce cheap electricity for the entire country, besides strengthening the economy.
