Power crisis is being inherited from previous regime: Gilani
Absolving the incumbent government of all the charges regarding power crisis facing the country, Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani has said that the said crisis is being inherited from the previous regime, a private TV reported on Monday.
Talking to media in Islamabad, the Premier said that the power shortage would not be addressed through finance but an authentic strategy is needed, adding that he did not love setting dates like Raja Parvez Ashraf, Federal Minister for Water and Power.
PM said that the power supply is being disrupted due to desilting drive initiated across the country and warned that the next crisis that would hit the country would be water shortage. The PM said that his government has been elected for five year term, posing a question that why his government being put to accountability only after passage of a year and half.
He said his party would not vie for next polls if it remained unable to fulfil its promises made with the public
