ISLAMABAD: Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI) President Ghazanfar Bilour has hailed statement of Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Revenue Haroon Akhtar Khan stating that government shall extend full support for the timely completion of the Thar coal projects.

In a statement issued here on Thursday, Ghazanfar Bilour said that it will certainly reduce the existing shortfall in energy requirements. He said that businesses have been shut down due to a high tariff on gas and power and completion of the coal projects shall certainly provide relief to entrepreneurs in order to boost production.
