I would like to share with readers that Kalabagh dam is a very crucial asset of our nation but at the same time, it is a controversial issue which causes ambiguity in public perception. Currently, we are getting 1,392MW, 726MW and 1450MW from Tarbela, Mangla and Ghazi Brotha dams but if Kalabagh dam is built, it would yield additional 3600MW, covering the shortfall for the future generations. The dam is expected to cost around eight billion dollars which I think could be obtained from G8 nations, each giving one billion dollars in the form of monetary assistance.
