Islamabad: Federal hukoomat ne Balochistan se related development schemes ke liye fiscal year 2025-26 me Rs2.77 billion jaari kar diye hain. Ye schemes Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP) ke under shamil hain.
Senate Standing Committee on Planning, Development aur Special Initiatives ko dikhaye gaye working paper ke mutabiq, Balochistan ke liye revised allocation Rs24.49 billion hai, jisme ab tak Rs2,772.65 million cash release ho chuka hai.
Poore mulk ke liye revised allocation Rs92.79 billion hai, jisme se ab tak Rs3.01 billion release ho chuki hai. Is hisaab se Balochistan ko ab tak ka sab se bara hissa diya gaya hai. Province ne apni revised allocation ka sirf 11% utilize kiya hai.
Balochistan portfolio me road connectivity, water resources aur municipal infrastructure par focus hai. Road sector me black-top roads, bypasses, aur major link improvements shamil hain jo agricultural valleys aur mineral clusters ko national corridors se connect karenge.
Kuch highlighted schemes me shamil hain:
- Ghand Dam, Baker, Dera Bugti
- 110 km road from Chedagi (Iran border) to Panjgur
- Black-top Northern Bypass Road, Loralai (15.5 km)
- Zhob to Mekhtar via Murgha Kibzai road (103 km)
- Black-top roads from Killi Sardar Abdul Rahim Khilji, Taftan in Chaghai District
Urban aur municipal projects me Quetta aur doosre urban centres ke liye drinking water, sanitation, smart-city style works, schools aur basic health infrastructure shamil hain.
Officials ka kehna hai ke initial releases modest hain, lekin land acquisition aur contractor mobilization jaise parallel steps ko enable karte hain, jo aksar civil works se zyada delay ka sabab bante hain.
Projects jaise Zhob–Murgha Kibzai–Mekhtar link travel time kam karenge aur freight cost reduce karenge, jabke Chedagi-Panjgur road trade facilitation me madadgar sabit hogi.
