    The real question is why the capacity was increased when there was no support of distribution. It was clear that old government made lot of Under table money through kickbacks by increasing capacities.

If yes see the uniforms and badges, same as what your generals strut around. They serve their masters who are masters of divide deprive and dominate. After all, a society with extra time and money might want to pay close attention to Quran. So....keep em busy.

    Thanks for explaining such a complicated economic issue in simple words. Lets hope your recommendation for renegotiating the agreements with the IPPs is taken consideration. Otherwise the masses are on the verge of revolt. On the other hand the IPPs should also realize the thininning of eonomic situation of the state. If the state remains economically stable then their investment would be of some worth In case of chaos and anarchy they wont be able to get a penny. Lets hope the sanity prevail on both sides and the poor consumers are given relief.

    3. How many local companies set up IPP. Why must they be paid dollar equivalents?
    4. Increasing transmission line is a must. We should see this as defence of Pakistan. Defence budget should be utilized.
    5. Quaid-e-Azam started Pakistan with 7 ministries. It is ridiculous a caretaker needs 22.
    Cabinets and others should work for Pakistan, not for grabbing privilege and perks.

    Very informative. Dr. Taimur you mentioned the IPP policy of 1994 but did we not double down after 2013? This is important as 1- The old 1994 plants were mostly small around 150MW 2 - Oil and coal prices in the following 8 years were low enough 3 - my understanding is the capacity payment on those projects will be very small now 4- The projects from 2013 are much bigger and were signed when oil price was over $100/bbl vs below $30 in 1994. So it was a much bigger mistake.

    A very good summary Taimur. I've had the pleasure of being an auditor for 2 IPPs, let me tell you I was surprised to see the agreements. The first step should be to re-negotiate and acquire the IPPs that are owned by Pakistan based Investors/Owners. The government should financially suffocate these IPPS to and make them divest. I am not pro Imran Khan, but at least his government started to question and re-negotiate these killer contracts and got some relief. These crooks should be made answerable and brought to justice for the kickbacks, commissions and fatal decision making that is causing the tax payers to commit suicides.
    The tax payers (awam) paid to build these institutions first, they privatized those institutions and now the tax payers (awam) are paying to subsidize the same privatized institutions....
