Rahoo said that the federal government only made electricity available in 756 villages of Sindh in the past 14 months whereas other provinces were allotted much more than that.
The minister said that 3613 villages in Punjab and 4176 villages in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa were made part of the national power grid which was a miscarriage of justice.
