Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Syed Khursheed Shah on Tuesday wrote to the Auditor General of Pakistan (AGP), seeking details of the audit of Nandipur power project.
The opposition leader’s letter comes a day after Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif ordered an audit into matters relating to the 525MW Nandipur power project.
The PM also ordered an enquiry to ascertain why the plant remained closed for four or six weeks after completion and to find out who was responsible in the event of negligence.
In the letter dispatched to the auditor general, Shah, who is also head of the National Assembly’s Public Accounts Committee, demanded immediate audit of the project.
