    Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Wednesday inaugurated the Thar coal power project.

    "I just inaugurated Thar coal power plant. The highest man made structure in Pakistan," Bilawal tweeted.

    Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah and PPP leaders as well as Sindh cabinet members were in attendance at the inauguration ceremony.

    The Thar coal power project has a capacity to generate 660 megawatts and consists of two power generation units of 330MW each.
