KARACHI:
The Sindh government has decided to revive the Keti Bandar project along with the installation of a 10,000-MW coal-fired power plant.
“This was Shaheed Benazir Bhutto’s dream and Sindh government is committed to realise her dream,” said Sindh Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah during his meeting with a Chinese delegation led by China-Pakistan Association President Sha Zukang.
“We are ready to lay a railway line from Thar coal field to Keti Bandar to transport coal … we would take it up on a build, operate and transfer (BoT) basis.”
Sha appreciated the development and said the Chinese would look forward to the formal proposal. “It is a fabulous and most attractive project and Chinese investors and their consortium would love to take it up.” He urged the Sindh government to make a detailed case of the Keti Bandar project and send it to the Chinese government.
