The Sindh government has introduced an initiative to provide interest-free loans to the middle class for installing solar systems.

Sindh Energy Minister Syed Nasir Hussain Shah announced this while addressing the media at his residence, where he also extended Eid greetings and urged people to remember the martyrs.

During his address, Minister Shah acknowledged the region’s various issues and highlighted the government’s efforts to alleviate these problems through the budget. He emphasized that ongoing schemes have been prioritized and assured that promises made to the public will be fulfilled.

Additionally, Shah announced measures to ensure the supply of clean water across Sindh. He pointed out that over 200,000 houses in the province still lack electricity. To address this, the government plans to provide electricity to 500,000 people annually. Initially, very poor households will receive solar systems capable of powering a fan and three bulbs.

For those who wish to install solar systems independently, the government is introducing an interest-free loan scheme, with the interest covered by the Sindh government. Shah also revealed plans to construct two grid stations in every district of Sindh to further improve the region’s energy infrastructure.
