He also announced the establishment of two power sub-stations on the border to solve the electricity issues of the dwellers in Faryab, Jawzjan and Sar-e-Pul provinces.
“Despite the change in market rates, we will continue to export electricity at the same rate as previous years,” said Mr. Wafa.
Baghaln Deputy Governor Eng. Abdul Rahman Mahmodi said Turkmenistan always stands by Afghanistan and assists with the reconstruction process.
“We are thankful to Turkmenistan’s support especially in the power sector of Afghanistan,” said Mr. Mahmodi.
