The Parliamentary Secretary for Interior said the overall law and order situation has improved in the country under the present government. As regards the federal capital, he said the crime rate has reduced by twenty nine percent over the last two years. He said Islamabad safe city project has fully been made functional. He said when the PTI came to power, only three hundred out of two thousand cameras were operational under this project. He said 1950 cameras have now been made operational.

Responding to a calling attention notice, Minister for Power Omar Ayub said the present government is investing in the up-gradation of power distribution and transmission system. He said when we came to power, our system was not able to transmit eighteen thousand megawatt of power but now during the summer season, it is capable enough to transmit twenty three thousand megawatts of power. He said this was made possible due to introduction of latest technology. He said issues of low voltages in congested areas are also being addressed. He said efforts have been accelerated to check power pilferage. He said there is a plan to enhance power generation to one hundred thousand megawatt by 2040 by primarily exploiting the indigenous resources including hydel, coal and renewables.
