In the article above it says $ 22 Billion will be spent on Thar Coal and Hydroelectric Projects in KPK. This kind of tells us a rough idea.

It forgot about Gaddani Coal Project and Quaid e Azam Solar Park Bahawalpur. I guess that combined will make it close to the 30 mark.

Technically its in the Ravi Zone. They have asked investors to come so the intent is there.

3 Billion? who are these extra 2.8 billion people?

Yes, apparently LDA tower and Mubarak centre would be revived.

It's good decision, they should expand vertically instead of wasting fertile land of Punjab in residential colonies.
