MAZAR-I-SHARIF (Pajhwok): A fertilizer and power factory in northern Balkh province has resumed production after its gas supply pipeline was reconnected, officials said on Saturday.
The Urea and Power Factory had stopped production 15 days ago after Taliban militants blew up its gas supply pipeline in the Chamtal district of the province.
A few days back, officials claimed the militants demanded the factory pay them four million afghanis and warned it of harsh consequences if the demand was not accepted.
