Even a corporate enterprise of 200 needs time to turnaround and you are expecting country with 190 millions to show miracles in 2 years !

Pak Energy/Power sector is bleeding, thanks to PPPP policy of** IPPs (1993-1996) **that our Manufacturing (LS or SS) cant compete in the market with cost of Rs.17/KWhr .

Also thanks to General Musharraf for not adding any Mega Power Project/Hydel Dam and “Consumerism Bubble” ultimately bursted with artificial growth without any long term and structural reforms.

Not to talk about the most corrupt era of Zardari and Gilani Co. (2008-2013)

So what Magic Stick PML-N have to flip everything in 2 years what we did in past 20 years ?

Agree to some extent that things can’t get better overnight and absolutely no doubt PPP crooks caused so much damage that it will probably take more than 5 years to recover. In this case, discussion is about yearly target and these are set with full knowledge of overall status of economy.

Also when you talk about power generation and PPP/Musharaff blunders, how much power has PMLN government added to grid? I might have missed something but all i heard of was “Nandi Pur” power project that seems to have totally failed and Bahawalpur Solar energy park that is hardly going to make any difference considering overall deficit. Any others?
