The Executive Committee of the National Economic Council (Ecnec) on Tuesday approved the Balochistan Water Resources Development Sector Project, along with several other province-related schemes. The projects were accorded approval during a meeting chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar via video link. Officials said the approved projects include revised plans for the Ziarat Mor–Kach–Harnai (109.882 km) road and the Harnai–Sanjavi (55.834 km) road, as well as a 110-kilometre road from the Chedegai (Iran) border to Panjgur.
The meeting underlined that improved road infrastructure and a strengthened communication network in Balochistan would not only boost regional trade—particularly with neighbouring countries—but also provide better travel facilities to the public. Ecnec further stressed timely completion of all approved projects and adherence to the highest standards of quality.
