In the last one year alone, the Sindh government has realised that almost all its infrastructure projects for Thar coal were either too ambitious financially or too big to be completed in time for speedy mining and power generation. In 2010, the provincial government had estimated that the development of a road network, building of water supply schemes and effluent disposal facilities, laying of electricity transmission lines and the provision of a railway link would cost 1.14 billion US dollars over the next five years.

even if the infrastructure development plans for mining of the coal were not that big financialy ,they would have taken years ^ years more than Scheduled completion .typical,corrupt,brainless,and non professional approach towards everything……PPP zindabad
it is so sad that being so close to new world power china we have learnt nothing .
Lets work together,generate electricity and made a dream come true:Pakistan zindabad.
This gives enough time to the government of Sindh (and the federal govt.) to invest in the education of the people of Thar. It would be really unfortunate if, when the coal project starts, all benefits bypass Tharis who are easily among the poorest people in the country.
