KP Chief Minister Pervez Khattak directed to plan the legal course for the extra cost expected to occur because of the expansion of industrialisation and investment in the Hattar Industrial Estate. He was presiding over a high level meeting at Chief Minister Secretariat Peshawar on Wednesday. Secretary P&D, MD KPPRA, Chief Executive EZDMC and others attended the meeting.
The CM reviewed the progress on different projects of different departments for showcasing in the Beijing road show towards the end of March. The CM directed to make the achievements of the provincial government fruitful relating to the CPEC and therefore it was necessary that the departments work beyond their targets and plan their projects effectively.
He said that Reshakai and Hattar industrial zones and other projects that became part of the CPEC would continue to be the major achievements of the present government. He said that we would construct our part of the road of CPEC linking Gilgit, Chitral and Chakdara.
He also directed to give final shape to the power projects of 1700MW in Malakand and Hazara which had already been made part of the CPEC. He said that the government had given three power projects to FWO that would cost US 2.024 billion dollars that would produce 800MW electricity. He also directed to complete the feasibility of railway track for the approved projects under the CPEC.
He also directed for the feasibility of circular railway track for the greater Peshawar Valley connecting Peshawar, Mardan, Charsadda, Nowshera, Swabi and Malakand.
