“Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has adopted a remote-governance model to lower fuel demand during the ongoing energy shock.”
Key points
- Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has adopted a remote-governance model to lower fuel demand during the ongoing energy shock.
- Virtual meetings and reduced office attendance will stay in place for two months, subject to review.
The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has introduced a two-month fuel conservation plan that shifts official meetings online and places half of government office staff on work-from-home duty.
The provincial cabinet approved the arrangement as concerns intensified over fuel availability and prices following disruptions in regional energy routes. Officials said the policy is designed to reduce unnecessary travel and limit fuel consumption across departments.
Authorities indicated the measures could be extended after review. Essential services, including police, Rescue 1122 and other law-enforcement bodies, are expected to remain outside the fuel-cut framework so that core public functions continue without interruption.
