The minister for information and Broadcasting, Qamar Zaman Kaira said this while talking to the journalists here today.

Talking about the exacerbating energy crisis, Kaira said that the ministry of petroleum has been directed to conduct a feasibility report for the purchase of gas from India.
He said, “For import of gas from Iran, we will have to lay about 1,000km long pipeline but for import of natural gas from India, we will have to lay only 60km long pipeline and if it is practical, it can provide instant relief
to the nation.”
