Roads network to bring economic development in Balochistan: PM Nawaz

GWADAR - Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Thursday asserted that road network constructed in Balochistan will bring economic development in the province.

The Prime Minister was addressing a public gathering in Gwadar. He added that such development projects will also lead to the establishment of schools, factories and businesses for the people deprived during other governments.

"We have constructed roads in terror-hit areas. I am grateful to the Frontier Works Organisation (FWO) which completed roads by sacrificing their lives to build them," Sharif said

The PM announced that a university and hospital will be built in Gwadar, with assistance from China. He added that 50 Baloch youth including girls will be taught the Chinese language to improve their chances of employment in the international market.

The PM arrived on a two-day visit to Gwadar from Pasni on Wednesday, where he inspected the road network up to Gwadar.
