Pakistan assures Tajikistan early completion of CASA-1000 energy project

Dushanbe (UNA-OIC) – Pakistan on Wednesday assured Tajikistan to make utmost efforts for the early completion of CASA-1000 project as an effective plan for the management of energy and water resources.
Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi in a joint press conference with his Tajik counterpart Sirojiddin Muhriddin in Dushanbe said Pakistan believed that CASA-1000 would not only benefit the two countries, but the entire region.
Launched in 2016, the under-construction Central Asia-South Asia (CASA-1000) power project, will allow the export of surplus hydroelectricity from Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan to Afghanistan and finally to Pakistan.
Qureshi said CASA-1000 project would improve electricity access, integrate and expand markets to increase trade, and find sustainable solutions to water resources management.
