Additional responsibilities: Education Minister Atif Khan assigned energy portfolio
Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) Chief Minister Pervez Khattak has assigned the additional portfolio of energy and power to provincial minister for elementary and secondary education Mohammad Atif Khan, according to an official handout issued on Monday. The dispatch stated Khan will take charge with immediate effect.
Confirming the development to The Express Tribune, Khan said he will take charge of his responsibilities in a day or two and will also be briefed by the department.The portfolio of irrigation, energy and power was earlier assigned to Qaumi Watan Party (QWP) provincial chief and parliamentary leader in the K-P Assembly Sikandar Hayat Sherpao. However, it has been vacant since November 13, 2013 when the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) sacked Sherpao and Ibrar Tanoli over corruption charges. Incensed, the QWP pulled out of the government and is now one of the most vocal critics of the ruling coalition led by PTI.
During the recent reshuffle of cabinet posts, the irrigation ministry was assigned to Mehmood Khan. However, the government took some time to allocate the energy and power ministry to Atif Khan. The energy and power department has been in the limelight of late, owing to the government’s efforts towards developing water resources of the province to boost power generation.
According to budget documents, Pakhtunkhwa Energy Development Organisation (PEDO) is operating four hydropower projects in Malakand, Swabi and Chitral districts with an installed capacity of 105 megawatts. The documents say that besides a reduction in power outages, these power stations are generating about Rs2 billion for the provincial kitty.
In collaboration with the Asian Development Bank, PEDO is constructing the 17-megawatt (MW) Ranolia hydropower project in Kohistan and 2.6 MW Machai project in Mardan. The Machai project is likely to be completed by August 2014 whereas Ranolia will be completed by December 2014. Under the same arrangement, feasibility studies of three sites were carried out. Based on these studies, Project Cycle (PC-I) reports have been chalked out, of which Jabori (10MW) in Mansehra, Karora (11MW) in Shangla and Koto (40.8MW) in Lower Dir have been approved. PEDO has started work on six other hydel projects with an installed capacity of 250.8MW under the action plan 2012-22.
The budget document stated that the energy and power department has also started feasibility studies on various tributaries in the province. PC-II was approved for 13 sites with a capacity of 1322MW. However, during feasibility study on various sites, the number of projects has been increased to 15 with total potential of 1911MW. Six feasibility studies have already been completed, whereas, five more will be completed by June 2014. The remaining four will be completed by December 2014.

[h=1]Practical work on Peshawar Mass Transit to begin after Eid: Khattak[/h]
KP Chief Minister Pervez Khattak has said that tenders for Peshawar Mass Transit have been issued and practical work on the mega project will start after Eidul Fitre. The completion of the project, he said, beside resolution of the grave traffic mess in the city will also multiply the environmental conditions and beauty of the city to attract tourists across the world.
The chief minister was talking to government officials and media on the occasion of the foundation stone laying ceremonies of two important projects of the expansion of Peshawar Ring Road and construction of new vast bridge on Budhni Nullah.
Those present on the occasion were included Minister for Mineral Development and Focal Person for Peshawar Mega Projects, Ziaullah Afridi, Minister for Local Government & Rural Development, Inayatullah, Director General (DG), Peshawar Development Authority (PDA) Mohammad Saleem Khan, Director Engineering, Aminuddin, Pakhtunkhwa Highway Authority (PHA), Managing Director (MD), Javed Ehsan, Director Construction, Engineer Mohammad Uzair, Administration MCP, Rasheed Ahmad Khan and other higher authorities of PDA and PHA.
The chief minister said that after successful holding of All Parties Conference (APC) on the IDPs of North Waziristan, the government on the proposal of the participants has decided the convening of another such conference for Regional Peace. He said, besides, all politicians and parliamentary leaders, former chief ministers, governors and members of the parliament would also be invited to the conference.
On this occasion, the chief minister was told that the beautification and extension of the four-kilometre Pir Zakori Bridge to Charsadda Road Intersection of the Ring Road will cost Rs 90 million and the PDA will complete it within a period of eight months.
The project is including the inclusion of two more lanes on both sides of Ring Road to extend it to three lanes of each side, construction of two important bridges and installation of solar lights. Similarly, the new tall and wide bridge on Budhni Nullah will be constructed by Pakhtunkhwa Highway Authority (PHA) at the cost of Rs 150 million within a period of six months. It would also be protected from the floods.
Furthermore, Mufti Mehmood Flyover to Landay Sarak Road Section of the Charsadda Road will also be expanded at the cost of Rs 150 million. The chief minister directed Peshawar Development Authority (PDA) for acceleration of the pace of work on Charsadda Road Intersection Flyover (Rs 700 million) and remaining sections to Pajgai Road and forward to Regi Township and Jamrud Road.
The chief minister while directing the authorities for making all Peshawar related development schemes comprehensive and acceleration of the pace of work on them said the process of implementation has been arrived and every department would have to give 100 per cent results. He said that the excuse of the lack of resources will not affect the availability of funds for any development plan. He said that Peshawar was a city of the flowers and gardens and its history and old cultural glory will be restored at any cost.
