The cost of Pakistan's under-construction Mohmand Dam hydropower project has increased by 115 percent over the past eight years, reaching Rs666 billion, according to officials. The rise is attributed to the rupee's depreciation against the dollar, design changes, the 2022 floods, and security issues, all of which affected both cost and the completion timeline.
