The country will have 16,000 MW of electricity by 2021, he said on Saturday. The minister added that Pakistan Muslim League- Nawaz (PML-N) believes in the progress of the country and will continue its journey of development despite hurdles created by the opposition.

He said that efforts are underway to provide employment, shelter, education and health facilities to the people by improving industrial and agricultural production.
