He stressed that Pakistan needs practical solutions: expanding the fast-charging network for electric vehicles, promoting carpooling and reducing energy and production costs. With India gaining greater access to European markets, Pakistan must act urgently to protect nearly $8 billion in exports and remain globally competitive.
