July 15, 2021 ISLAMABAD: Transparency International Pakistan has approached the prime minister’s office with the request that the inquiry into The News story about the loss of $753.7 million (around Rs 100 billion) caused to the exchequer during the execution by Chairman WAPDA of a project in Tunnel-4 of the Tarbela Dam Project was wrongly closed by the Ministry of Water Resources (MOWR). In a letter issued on Wednesday and addressed to the principal secretary to the prime minister, the TI Pakistan said: “We reject the MOWR assertion that the prime minister ordered the inquiry to be closed on 8.5.2019, which is clearly an attempt to divert the blame from themselves.”
