Minister for Maritime Affairs, Muhammad Junaid Anwar Chaudhry says construction work has begun on an environmentally efficient floating jetty at the Korangi Fisheries Harbour Authority to facilitate the offloading of export-quality fish catches.

He was chairing a meeting of the KoFHA board in Islamabad.

The Minister said the project will be completed by the end of June this year at a cost of one hundred and twenty million rupees.

Junaid Chaudhry said the initiative would ensure safer and more reliable access to the water, while facilitating the smooth landing and unloading of fish catch.
