You need to look at the bigger picture dude.
He stated:-
"as long as the people of Sindh do not decide that if the dam is constructed their water will not be stolen, (Kalabagh) dam will not be constructed"
I have heard many times by your leaders that Sindh & KPK water won't be stolen so if it is true than govt should go for a All parties conference and assure them that there water won't be stolen, simple. Not PTI but others are doing politics on Kalabagh dam. Khattak is ready for kalabagh dam all he want is to address their reservations.
Build Kalabagh but address our reservations first, says KP CM
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Pervez Khattak has said that his province will have no objection to the construction of the Kalabagh dam, if their reservations are addressed.
Speaking at a news conference on Saturday, Pervez Khattak called for the formation of a commission on the Kalabagh dam issue. “We will have no objections on the construction of the dam if our reservations are redressed,” he said.
He claimed that he would provide electricity to the entire KP province, at half the price, if the federal government supplied 13.5 per cent of the electricity as has been laid out in the constitution. He said that the federal government owed trillions of rupees because of royalty.
The chief minister further claimed that the KP government can generate electricity at Rs 8 per unit, as compared to the federal government that is generating it at the high price of Rs 18 per unit.
To a question, he said the KP government is doing everything that it had promised, adding, “We are rectifying the system in the KP, and have eliminated corruption.”
“I had got the province which was being ruled by law of the jungle, but now everything has been settled down, and every task is being done on merit,” he said.
Responding a query, he called upon the federal government to issue NoCs to foreign investors to invest in the KP and assured that the provincial government would take responsibility for their security.
Replying to a question, he said that notices have been issued to three PML-N leaders, including Mirza Hamid, Danyal Aziz, and Tariq Fazal Chaudhry for leveling baseless allegation against the KP government.
The chief minister said that ‘Naya Pakistan’ will not be created with merely the construction of roads and bridges, “but with good governance.”
Referring to the development projects in the province, he said they are being built swiftly.
Khattak claimed there is no law and order situation in the province.
“I myself come out of my home alone without security as the situation has improved considerably,” he said.
