Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz today greenlit funds for the Roshan Gharana Program, aimed at bolstering solar energy usage among low-consumption households in the Punjab province.

During a meeting chaired by Nawaz in Lahore, it was decided that households consuming under 100 electricity units per month will receive 1kv solar kits, comprising two solar plates, batteries, inverter, and wiring.

The 1kv Solar system will be provided to the protected power consumers who are using under 100 electricity units per month. Two solar plates, batteries, inverter and wires would be provided to the families eligible under the project.

The meeting also approved funds for a State-of-the-art computer lab for the Government College of Technology, as the International Under Graduate Scholarship and Local Scholarship Programs. The chief minister also ordered to end the backlog of the vehicle’s number plates in five months.

In her inaugural address after assuming office, Maryam outlined her vision for the next five years, prioritizing plans to cater to consumers utilizing less than 300 units of electricity. The initiative underscores efforts to reduce dependency on conventional power grids and promote renewable energy adoption.
