July 29, 2024 (MLN): Minister for Energy, Sardar Awais Ahmad Khan Leghari has recently disclosed that Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb and other government officials have engaged with Chinese bankers for potential investments in Pakistan's power sector.

According to the Information Ministry, the Minister made these remarks during an interview with a private news channel, where he further stated that the government has proposed its reform plans and energy vision to China's National Energy Administration.
