PM charing Cabinet meeting. Briefing on energy and ways & means to reduce load shedding. There is a shortage of installed capacity to cater to the high demand. There were also supply chain gaps because PTI didn’t make enough fuel contracts. We are addressing these issues urgently pic.twitter.com/9oD0xswION
