ISLAMABAD: In a meeting of the federal cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, several significant decisions were made to ensure economic stability, promote renewable energy, and enhance national security.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif directed that no new duty be imposed on solar panels, ensuring common citizens have affordable access to renewable solar energy. He stressed the importance of low-cost solar energy reaching every citizen, reinforcing his commitment to making renewable energy accessible and affordable.
“Low-cost renewable solar energy will be made accessible to every citizen,” he insisted.
The prime minister detailed his strategy for boosting the economy, which includes increasing exports by developing small and medium-scale industries. He emphasized abolishing privileges for the elite and resource exploiters, prioritizing economic security and equal development opportunities for all citizens.
“We are planning hard to move the economy in a positive direction,” he added.
Taking cabinet members into confidence on the misunderstandings and speculations about the ‘Azm-e-Istehkam Vision’, Prime Minister Sharif clarified that it did not involve launching new operations. Instead, he announced that intelligence-based operations already underway would be intensified to decisively root out terrorist remnants and violent extremism.
