Published December 30, 2013

SOON after TV new channels reported the prime minister’s decision to transfer administrative control of electricity distribution system in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to the PTI-led provincial government, Sindh Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah held a meeting with PPP leader Asif Ali Zardari and discussed the issue.

According to DawnNews, the meeting decided that the Sindh government would also seek control of power generation and distribution companies based in Sindh and a formal request to this effect would soon be made through a letter to be written by the provincial government to the centre.
