He said this while presiding over the meeting of the chairpersons of the newly constituted boards of directors of DISCOs.

Power Minister Sardar Awais Ahmad Khan Leghari also attended the meeting.

The discussions focused on the critically required human resources by the DISCOs. The chairpersons were asked to reassess the level of human resource requirements in light of the functional requirements and the principles of outsourcing for maximum efficiencies, reduction in line losses, elimination of power theft and customer care.

They were also urged to look into all those ageing posts which are redundant.
