Famous Pakistani Scientist Dr. Samar Mubarakmand has said that the project for producing electricity from coal has been completed half way and the remaining 50% work will be finished within the next two months. He said that this project will not only generate ample electricity for Pakistan but also fulfill country's energy requirements to a great extent. Dr. Samar Mubarakmand quoted these details in a seminar organized by IEEEP in Lahore. He said that the technical difficulty in this project is that while digging out coal, water rises above the coal surface however this glitch is being dealt with. He further said that after completion of this project, Pakistan's GDP could straight away jump up from 8 to 10. He appealed to all influential forces in the country to support this project. Discussing Kalabagh Dam, he said that hurdles in construction of Kalabagh Dam was bad luck for Pakistan. Bhasha Dam is a comparatively more expensive and less feasible project and it will not generate electricity in winter very robustly. Earlier, Dr. Samar Mubarakmand had told the media that Thar Coal Project will be completed by December 2013.

Pakistan has the capability to shoot down CIA-operated drones, former Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) head Dr Samar Mubarak Mand has said. Talking to media persons, the nuclear scientist said that Pakistan had F-16 fighter jets, which were capable of shooting down any kind of drone predators. He reminded that an Israhell-made Indian drone, which had been sent to attack Lahore, was successfully knocked down by Pakistan several years ago, The Nation reports. 

Dr Samar also observed that it was a strategic issue, therefore the final decision in this regard rested with the government. It is noteworthy that similar statements had been issued time and again by Chief of Air Staff Air Chief Marshal Rao Qamar Suleman that Pakistan is capable of shooting down the USZ predator aircraft. But such claims are in direct contrast with Pakistan puppet Interior Minister Satan Malik’s statement that the Pakistan Air Force cannot shoot down unmanned USZ drones. Malik said recently that the altitude of the drones is much higher than that of Pakistan’s F-16 fighter jets.

“Our effort remains focused on finding a diplomatic solution to halt drone attacks. We feel they are counter-productive. Drone missiles cause collateral damage. A few militants are killed, but the majority of victims are innocent citizens”, the puppet Minister added.
