PESHAWAR: Strict monitoring is underway to ensure transparency and timely completion of energy projects under the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government’s Good Governance Roadmap Programme, an official said on Sunday.
Speaking at the weekly meeting regarding the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Good Governance Roadmap Programme, Secretary Energy and Power Nisar Ahmad stressed the strict implementation of the guidelines set for ongoing energy projects.
