Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani Friday said that foundation laying stone of Diamir Bhasha dam will be held on October 18. He said that it was a mega project and the government brought it in the Council of Common Interest (CCI) to take approval of all the stakeholders so that it could not be politicized like Kala Bagh dam. He said the meeting of CCI was attended by the four chief ministers and they approved the project unanimously, adding that the Diamir Bhasha dam was a dream of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and the PPP-led government was committed to materialize it. The Prime Minister while responding to point of orders in the National Assembly recalled that Lowari Tunnel project was launched during the Zulfiqar Ali Bhuttos government. Gilani said that he has convened two meetings on the project that requires Rs. 2 billion for completion, adding that the amount would soon be provided to complete the remaining work on the project.
