If all the oil reserves of Saudi Arabia and Iran are put together, it will be approximately 375 billion barrels, but a single Thar(name of area in sindh) coal reserve of Sindh is about 850 trillion cubic feet, which is more than oil reserves of both Saudi Arabia and Iran.

It would require an initial 420 billion rupees investment, where as Pakistan receives annually 1220 billion from tax only.

Just 2% usage of Thar(name of area in Sindh) coal can produce 20,000 mega watts of electricity for next 40 years without any single second of load shedding.

Pakistan can be among the developed countries but the resources should be utilize to get the maximum advantage.
