In response to claims in the media that linked the two Chinese engineers who were killed in an explosion in Karachi to the ongoing IPP talks, the Finance Division has provided clarification.
The Finance Division issued a statement in which it stated that the government has been in negotiations with independent power producers (IPPs), one of which being the power plant for whom both of the Chinese engineers worked.
The engineers who passed away, on the other hand, were not taking part in the IPP discussions. Consequently, any impression that is formed to this effect by reporting in the media is incorrect and has no basis in reality.
