Multan: The Auqaf and Religious Department Punjab recently decided to use the spare, non-agricultural land under its possession for the purpose of generating electricity through a solar power plant setup, a news source reported. As per the publication, the department will cooperate with the Energy Department in this regard.
As per the initial plan, the government authority will utilize 31,000 acres of spare land in Dera Ghazi Khan’s Sakhi Sarwar Tomb, where they plan on setting up a solar power plant (as it has been deemed the optimal location for such a setup). The energy experts and the Auqaf department are expected to conduct a joint survey in order to execute the project.
Auqaf department secretary has written a letter to the Punjab government in order to seek a formal approval. The letter states that the department owns 31,929 acres of land in Dargah Hazrat Sakhi Sarwar in Dera Ghazi Khan, and this land is non-agricultural. Since the city receives ample day light, the location is perfect for setting up a solar power plant.
