The PM has directed for timely issuance of NOCs for new electricity connections to consumers for housing projects as there is an ample generation of electricity in the country and no cause for delay.
The PM has also directed the Power and Petroleum divisions to ensure the availability of electricity and gas connections in newly constructed projects for the facilitation of developers and builders as this has been creating hurdles for the construction sector.
