\nThe Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government has launched a free solar panel scheme aimed at providing sustainable energy solutions to low-income households
\nUnder the initiative, 130,000 households registered under the Ehsaas Programme and Benazir Income Support Programme will receive free solar systems.
\nIn the first phase, 32,500 beneficiaries will be selected through a lottery system, with priority given to electricity-deprived and highly affected areas. The scheme also includes orphans, widows, disabled individuals, and transgender persons.
\nHouseholds selected through the draw will receive a solar panel, controller, battery, bulbs, and a fan.
\nKP Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur said the initiative aims to address power shortages in the province. \u201cWe are providing free solar systems to 130,000 people due to electricity issues in the region. Most applications came from Dera Ismail Khan, but we will distribute them on merit,\u201d he said.
\nHe added that all Members of the Provincial Assembly (MPAs) have been informed that the selection process will be conducted through a lottery. \u201cPerformance should be the real competition. KP has always led in performance, and I challenge everyone on that basis,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
