Views on Kalabagh Dam
He is considered as the most hardline supporter of Kalabagh Dam. He has indicated inter provinces prejudices as well as alleged foreign lobbies supporting anti-Kalabag dam movement in Sindh and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. He also argued that the worst floods in Noshera history in 1929 and 2010 flooded Noshera which denies the ANP fears of Noshera being flooded on construction of Kalabagh Dam.
