May 17, 2022

Minister for Planning and Development Ahsan Iqbal has said that the completion of all CPEC projects is the top most priority of the present government.

Addressing the students and faculty at the University of Gwadar in Gwadar today (Tuesday), he said that China-Pakistan Economic Corridor project is a national development plan which the previous government tried to make controversial.

The Minister said that education, water, electricity and health development projects, started in 2017, were delayed due the inattentiveness of previous government.

He vowed to resume the process of development in Gwadar at the same pace as was left in 2018.

Ahsan Iqbal said that transmission line project will be completed soon while the construction work of the University of Gwadar will also be completed within two years.

He also announced the upgradation of the hospital in Gwadar.
