Private sector can help resolve energy crisis?:ACCI

Islamabad:The Attock Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) on Wednesday said government should take a bold step to resolve energy crisis by allowing private sector to produce electricity without stringent conditions so that economic downturn can be contained.

Government has failed to tackle shortfall due to lack of efficiency, resources and capacity which is pushing country in the Stone Age, it said.Constitutional restriction that bars provinces and private sector to generate more than 50 mw without federal government approval should be lifted, said Tariq Mehmood, President Attock Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
