LAHORE: Reflecting the government’s “Roshan Punjab” initiative and “Clean and Green Pakistan”, Minister for Energy Dr Muhammad Akhtar Malik and Minister for Health Dr Yasmeen Rashid launched solarisation of basic health units of Punjab (Phase-II) project by holding a signing ceremony here on Wednesday.
Speaking to the media, Dr Rashid said with the advent of green energy the basic health units of Sargodha, Jhelum and Mandi Bahauddin would be harnessing the power of sun. “The solar solutions will not only ensure constant energy supply but also reduce the ever increasing energy and maintenance cost of facilities,” she added.

In some cases these were long-planned and the result of fleet renewals already long in motion. But in the others were the fleet casualties of a global crisis that hastened their departure.
Some enjoyed a fanfare out of service. Others flew their last without even knowing it. More still seem likely to have flown in their airline colours for the last time, even if official decisions are still to come.
