00:00Let's proceed with this explainer. Today we will try to understand one such puzzling Kun Tajat where
00:07On the one hand, billion dollar geopolitical energy projects are being implemented and right next to them
00:13The local population living there goes about their daily routine.
00:16The Bunyadi are fighting a war of rebellion. This is indeed a very interesting but thought-provoking story. And this is the situation
00:23Our current Banyadi Mudu is best described in detail. We call it the Paradox of Plenty or the Paradox of Plenty.
00:31You can say tazaad. That is, a
00:45But the public is facing unease. To understand this complex issue in a non-partisan way
00:53We will divide it into four parts: first, mega dams and projects, then local power generation, and then infrastructure.
01:01missiles and ammunition
01:15These are based on banal national agreements such as the 1960 Syndicate Agreement. Over time, these have become a subject of complex legal debate.
01:22For example, recall the 2013 decision to allocate water for the Kishan Ganga project.
01:29Low flow of 9Q mix was made
01:43Kushan Ganga is generating 330 MW of power and Udi Stage One is generating 480 MW of power.
01:52The run-off and river projects to be built along the way are creating immense tension.
01:59There is a huge gardener behind
02:13These billions of rupees have been spent on building turbines and power hoses to supply electricity to the national grid.
02:19So that we can go. Well, now let's come to the second part which is about local lightning and this very lightning.
02:25is about. There's a lot
02:40Why are there so many pushback bills? One major reason is that the general public is burdened with
02:46There's intense pressure to pay bills. Yet, the government itself is the biggest debtor of the electricity distribution companies.
02:53Nadhinda is a clan
03:13The protesters' demands are quite reasonable. They cite a 1962 agreement to demand that electricity bills be waived.
03:20They are demanding the abolition of new taxes imposed on the wheat and a reduction in the price of flour.
03:25Revert those government orders also
03:38The protesters cite an 85-year-old agreement, which was supposedly signed in 1962 at that time.
03:46It was between the then Chief Minister Ayub Khan and K. H. Khurshit. It is said that at that time the Mangla Dam
03:52Give free electricity to Makami people in exchange for construction
04:07And let us see what the situation is in terms of ground realities and fundamentals.
04:37And this disunity is not limited to roads but is also visible in the field of education.
04:43Statistics and calculations show that 72 percent of the schools there are only for primary level and even in those schools, there is no electricity, drinking water etc.
04:50Clean water and four days
04:52There is a severe lack of basic amenities like electricity, which is definitely a hindrance to the progress of this region.
04:57There is a huge obstacle.
05:02Local governments often fail to keep their promises on infrastructure. Take the example of the Kala Koda thermal power plant.
05:07It was inaugurated with great enthusiasm in 1968 as the first coal-fired station.
05:13Was.
05:13But just two decades later, in 1987, it had to be closed due to poor quality of local coal.
05:19And today it has become just a war-like dagger.
05:23Finally, we come to the fourth part, which describes the local population's distress and the difficulties they faced.
05:30There is mention of his flexibility.
05:32Since modern cooling systems or reliable heating facilities are not available in rural areas, many mines are still
05:41They are also standing on their centuries old tradition.
05:44To escape the harsh summer weather, they stay with their cattle for three to four months.
05:50The Bulan migrate to hilly pastures, localized in the local language known as dhok, mahili, or bahk.
06:14Therefore, every year they have to repair their ancient pots using clay and wood.
06:20One thing about Salima Baby perfectly describes her courage and her deep connection with the natural environment.
06:27Is.
06:27She says, "We can't survive in cities. We'll keep coming here as long as we live."
06:46So after all this detail, a very important and basic question arises in the mind.
06:51Will the massive energy projects worth billions of dollars being built in this region ever affect the daily lives of these common people?
06:57We will be able to bring improvement to those who are living under the shadow of these dams.
07:01Will this harmless evil arising at the macro level ever reach the micro level and disturb the lives of the local population?
07:07Will be able to create authority.
07:08This is a question that forces one to think a lot about the meaning of progress.
