Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif said that the federal government is committed to providing low-cost electricity to domestic and other consumers along with implementing measures to create economic stability.
Speaking to the newly appointed chairmen and board members of the power distribution companies (Discos) here in Islamabad, PM Shehbaz said that the government and all of its relevant departments are purely focused to offering affordable electricity to domestic and other industrial consumers.

“Our sole focus is to reduce power prices to provide relief to domestic consumers, agriculture, industry, exports, and business sectors. This is inevitable to steer the economy of prevailing issues. The competitiveness of exports is linked with the cheap electricity,” the prime minister said.
Calling the low-cost electricity and efficient power transmission system the major factors for a stable economy, PM Shehbaz said he and the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) are focused on achieving the targets.
The prime minister said that the government would publicly recognise the Discos members and heads who would put in their maximum efforts to bring improvements, but those failing to do so would neither be spared nor would remain part of the team.
