The central leader of Tehreek-e-Istiqlal, Rehmat Khan Wardag, while expressing great concern over the electricity and wheat crises in the country, on Wednesday said that construction of five big dams, including Kala Bagh, would not only resolve these problems but would also put the country back on the track to development.
He expressed these views while talking to a delegation of office-bearers and workers of the Tehreek here. He said that power crisis has been created due to non-construction of new dams, and added that prolonged suspension of power has crippled daily life activities and industries that has badly affected the economy and increased unemployment.
Rahmat said that any further delay in the construction of the dams would deepen the food crisis in the country. President Pervez Musharraf has fulfilled his promise of holding free and fair elections and transfer of power to the elected representatives, he said, adding that the political parties should work for promotion of national reconciliation.
He said that political parties should work for resolution of the problems faced by common people instead of playing the politics of vested interests.
