Since we are more likely to have sources written by “winners” designed to highlight why they were heroic in their victories. Sometimes what we hear or read is not entirely factual; the biasness needs to be recognized to escape the trap we are setting for ourselves.
The day champ Shireen Naqvi then in her session Formation of Narratives – Construction and Deconstruction engaged participants in an activity that makes them understand what narratives are, how they are formed and how they can be deconstructed
Followed by a session Tameer se Takmeel Tak conducted by Javed Jabbar where he explainedwe often argue or disagree over why Pakistan was founded or what the Quaid’s Pakistan was like, but is this argument still valid today? Or the conversation right now should be more practical. The reality is, Pakistan does exist, and we all call it home. Now it’s up to us to decide if we want to continue living the way we already do or find some common ground to live together peacefully and develop as a nation.
Later, Ali Hameed in his sessionClash of Civilizations & Pakistani Youth explained that The Clash of Civilizations is a theory that claims that in the post-Cold War world, conflicts will mostly arise from people’s cultural and religious identities and how we as responsible individuals might overcome this conflict without contributing to it.

The use of off-grid solar panels is increasing day by day in the rural areas of Pakistan, especially among the disadvantaged segments of society who cannot afford conventional means of lighting or large-scale renewable projects.
These people simply buy a panel or two and expose them to the sun either on their roofs or outside in the open air if they live under thatched roofs, even though they enjoy very limited benefits as these gadgets can only run fans or other small appliances.
Chinese inverter manufacturer Zhejiang Beny Electric Company has recently unveiled a micro-inverter series for residential systems. Such inverters can enable the rural communities in the far-flung and remote areas of Pakistan to get maximum benefits from the sunlight utilising their limited resources, China Economic Net (CEN) reported.
A dealer in the solar panels and inverters in Malakand, says that two variants, BYM550 (550-volt ampere) and BYM700 (700VA), can be a game changer for the people, especially for those living in the rural area.
“Small families in urban areas can also benefit from these mini-inverters,” he said. BYM550 and BYM700 can be connected to a single panel and enable module-level maintenance and management of the PV Station by monitoring the power generation of each module, as per the company instructions. The maximum output power is up to 721W/channel adapted to 60, 66, and 72 cells PV panels. The static maximum power point tracking (MPPT) efficiency is 99.80% while peak efficiency is 97.5% and EURO efficiency is 97%.

Minister for Power Engineer Khurram Dastgir Khan on Wednesday refuted speculations of an increase in electricity rates by stating that the cabinet had not yet approved such an increase.
The minister stated at a news conference that while the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) has established the rebasing tariff, the topic had not yet been brought before the cabinet.
The matter was reviewed at the Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) meeting, where it was proposed that the tariff will be hiked in three instalments in July, August, and October.
However, after discussing the matter with its affiliated parties, the administration determined that the tariff would not be increased for lifeline consumers and that they would receive a substantial subsidy. He stated that the Punjab government has also promised that users consuming up to 100 units will receive free power.
According to Dastagir, water inflow into Tarbela Dam has increased significantly over the last five days, and it has begun producing 3,864MW as opposed to 1,100MW on July 1. In addition to this, the demand for electricity has decreased due to the improvement in the weather, he added.
The minister stated that there was an average electricity shortfall of 4,000 to 5,000 MW and that there will be a significant reduction in loadshedding during the Eid holidays. The refuelling of the K2 nuclear power station is currently underway, and it will begin producing 1,100MW of electricity to the national grid before Eid, significantly reducing loadshedding in the country.
Khurram noted a significant improvement in the import of coal from Afghanistan, as well as the signing of an agreement between commercial partners and Independent Power Producers (IPPs).
The Pakistani and Afghani governments just served as facilitators for the accord. After Eid, a Pakistani delegation will travel to Kabul to finalise coal import mechanisms, and they are seeking to launch a 24-hour coal supply operation from Afghanistan.
He stated that Pakistan Railways played a key role in supplying coal to the Sahiwal Coal Power station, adding that three coal-laden trains have already arrived in Sahiwal. During the current fiscal year, the government will add an additional 5,000 MW to the national grid, according to the minister.
All of these initiatives were launched by the previous PMLN administration led by Nawaz Sharif, he said. In response to a question, the minister stated that Pakistani rupees would be used to purchase coal from Afghanistan.
The Chinese HUBCO Power Plant would likewise utilise Afghanistan-imported coal. In response to a question, he stated that the Neelum-Jhelum Power Plant is now down due to a technical failure, the cause of which is being investigated. He stated that every effort would be made to eliminate the defects as quickly as possible.
