Answer:
Firstly, the coal produced in pakistan is of low quality such as Lignite and can not be used in industries such as steel or can be used for iron smelting
Secondly, coal in pakistan is difficult to mine as the seams and mines are thin and twisted plus mines in pakistan are not being developed and explored due to lack of technology and finance of Pakistan therefore this encourages the need to import coal in pakistan
Lastly, due to the poor quality of coal mined in Pakistan, it can not be used in many industries without mixing it with a greater quality coal first. And the greater quality coal needs to be imported.
