A Riveting Exposé: ‘And Then There Was Darkness’ Sheds Light on Pakistan’s Power Sector Crisis
Javed Munawarud Din’s New Book Unveils the Shocking Reality Behind the Country’s Energy Woes
Texas, US, 26th March 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, The global energy crisis has placed immense pressure on nations to reassess their power sector policies. Pakistan, a country long plagued by chronic energy shortages, has suffered from frequent blackouts, rising costs, and mismanagement. In his latest book, And Then There Was Darkness, Javed Munawarud Din, a veteran electrical engineer with over 30 years of experience in Pakistan’s Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA), takes readers on a compelling journey through the country’s deteriorating energy sector. The book is an in-depth, firsthand account of the corruption, inefficiency, and flawed policies that have brought Pakistan’s power industry to the brink of collapse.
A Story Rooted in Experience and Truth
Javed Munawarud Din’s insights come from decades of working within Pakistan’s energy infrastructure. And Then There Was Darkness is not just a technical critique; it is a deeply personal narrative interwoven with investigative analysis. The book paints a vivid picture of the downfall of a once-promising energy sector, burdened by political interference, poor governance, and misguided energy agreements. The author exposes the inner workings of WAPDA and the Independent Power Producer (IPP) contracts, which, rather than benefiting the public, prioritized profits for private entities, leaving the country in a cycle of debt and inefficiency.
“I have witnessed firsthand how policies were manipulated to serve personal interests rather than the public good,” says Javed Munawarud Din. “This book is my way of shedding light on the real reasons behind Pakistan’s energy crisis and calling for necessary reforms.”
A Comparative Perspective on Energy Policies
In his book, Javed Munawarud Din draws comparisons between Pakistan’s energy policies and successful global models. He explores how the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and U.S. power cooperatives were able to provide long-term, sustainable solutions, while Pakistan’s sector spiraled into instability. By evaluating what worked elsewhere and what went wrong at home, the author offers a compelling case for self-reliance and structured reforms to revitalize the power industry.
The book not only highlights past failures but also provides solutions, advocating for improved governance, transparency, and better resource management. The author believes that by learning from successful global energy models, Pakistan can implement policies that lead to long-term energy sustainability.
A Personal Story of Migration, Education, and Reform
Beyond the technical and policy discussions, And Then There Was Darkness is also a personal memoir. Javed Munawarud Din shares his journey from Pakistan to Saudi Arabia and ultimately the United States, where he found refuge from the corruption and inefficiencies that hindered progress back home. His reflections on migration, professional growth, and the contrasting experiences of working in different countries offer a broader perspective on leadership and governance.
The book highlights the struggles faced by professionals within Pakistan’s energy sector, particularly those who sought to implement positive change but found themselves constrained by a rigid system resistant to progress. It sheds light on how talent often leaves the country in search of better opportunities, further exacerbating the issue of brain drain.
A Call for Change
And Then There Was Darkness is more than just a critique—it is a wake-up call. It urges policymakers, industry experts, and citizens to demand better governance and accountability in the energy sector. The author provides concrete recommendations for reviving Pakistan’s power industry, including:
- Re-evaluating and renegotiating exploitative energy agreements.
- Increasing transparency in the allocation and management of resources.
- Investing in sustainable and renewable energy solutions.
- Implementing reforms that prioritize the public’s welfare over private profits.
- Encouraging and retaining local expertise instead of relying on foreign entities.
The book is an essential read for engineers, policymakers, students, and anyone interested in understanding the intricate dynamics of energy governance. It provides valuable lessons on how a country’s fate can be determined by the policies it chooses to implement—or ignore.
Praise for And Then There Was Darkness
Readers and industry professionals alike have commended the book for its depth of analysis and eye-opening revelations. “This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand why Pakistan’s energy crisis persists despite numerous reform promises,” says an energy consultant based in Islamabad. Another reader noted, “Javed’s ability to blend personal experience with investigative analysis makes this book both informative and engaging.”
About the Author
Javed Munawarud Din is an accomplished electrical engineer with extensive experience in Pakistan’s Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA). With over three decades in the field, he has worked on key projects that shaped the country’s energy sector. Having witnessed both the promise and failure of Pakistan’s power industry, he now seeks to shed light on the root causes of its dysfunction. Currently residing in the United States, he continues to advocate for transparency, efficiency, and meaningful reforms in energy governance.

Grand Slam Contractor Redefines Fencing Marketing with 60-Appointment Milestone
United States, 13th Aug 2025 – In a groundbreaking move designed to transform how fencing companies grow, Grand Slam Contractor is offering a guarantee unlike anything seen in the industry: 60 booked homeowner appointments within 90 days, or the contractor owes nothing.
Unlike traditional marketing agencies that deliver unverified “leads,” Grand Slam Contractor ensures every appointment meets strict criteria — a homeowner located in the contractor’s service area, actively seeking a fence, ready for an in-person estimate, and never shared with competitors.
Shifting the Focus from Leads to Results
For years, fencing contractors have invested in marketing campaigns that produced long lists of cold leads, many of which never answered the phone. Grand Slam Contractor replaces that gamble with a done-for-you appointment setting model that fills calendars with homeowners ready to buy.
“This industry has been flooded with empty promises,” said Alinur Almaz, founder of Grand Slam Contractor. “We believe in accountability. If we don’t deliver the appointments we promise, the contractor doesn’t pay a dime.”
How the System Delivers
The company’s proven system combines high-precision targeting with rapid lead engagement:
- Digital ad campaigns aimed at high-value ZIP codes.
- Immediate follow-up on every inquiry before competitors can respond.
- Trust-building campaigns that position the contractor as the market leader.
- Complete appointment scheduling, allowing contractors to focus on estimates and installations.
Clients regularly see 28–35 qualified appointments in their first month, often outpacing the 90-day target.
Exclusive Access, Limited Availability
To maintain performance and prevent overlap, Grand Slam Contractor works with a maximum of 25 fencing companies nationwide. Each contractor receives exclusive rights to their service area.
Risk-Free Growth for Contractors
The program’s performance-based model eliminates the uncertainty common in marketing. If the 60-appointment threshold isn’t met, the contractor pays nothing — making it a true risk-free growth solution.

About Grand Slam Contractor

Specializing in performance-based growth strategies, the company combines targeted advertising, rapid lead follow-up, and full-service appointment scheduling to help contractors close more jobs without wasting time on unqualified leads.
