Islamabad: The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Monday resumed hearing of suo motu case regarding Rental Power Plants.A division bench of the apex court comprising Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry and Justice Khilji Arif Hussain was hearing the case. During the hearing, the CJ remarked good governance and enforcing government writ was necessary to run the country.
“How loadshedding ended abruptly on an order of prime minister when people took to streets,” the CJ inquired.
He said that as to why 14 percent amount was paid in advance to a rental power company prior to the cabinet’s approval while advance amount was also increased despite the RPPs failed to complete the task in time.
He said that there was no loadshedding in the country after the payments were made to the power producers.
He said that why the government made payment to the Reshman Power Plant when it didn’t produce electricity. He said that the government should forward cases in the NAB against those responsible for the criminal negligence.
“We will not speak further, if God willing we will give an order accordingly,” the CJ went on saying.
