QUETTA: (Dunya News) – Federal and provincial (Balochistan) governments have on Friday decided to provide 2281 acre land to China for constructing Gwadar industrial zone, reported Dunya News.
China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is not going to prove an important milestone for progress of Pakistan only, but also for the progress of entire region. All the vital steps are being taken for making the Gwadar port functional for this purpose. Federal and provincial governments have also decided to provide the land for construction of Gwadar International Airport and industrial zone by the end of this month. Federal Minister for Port and Shipping has said that all the measures are being taken in order to make Gwadar an industrial zone.
On the other hand, Balochistan’s analysts say that Gwadar port became functional under Musharraf regime but the city still lacks the basic facilities.
Practical steps are being taken by the Balochistan government to complete the CPEC. A delegation comprising of CM Balochistan and Secretary Development Zulfiqar Durrani among others is on China visit these days where they will meet the Chinese experts and will also brief the Chinese officials.
