As far execution of 3rd phase of 450 MW Baghliar power project is considered, the previous government put it on hold as initial reports suggested that due to less water discharge in winters, the 3rd phase of the project involved on power house and tunneling works will be feasible for only 3 to 4 months which the previous government feels not viable to invest the money in the said project and instead prefer to execute some other project that will generate power throughout the year.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
