The CEO of the Aga Khan Cultural Services Pakistan, Khawaja Tauseef Ahmad, paid a visit to Chief Minister of Punjab (CM) Ch Parvez Elahi at the CM Office.
The key decision to transform Lahore into a smart city in collaboration with the AKCSP was taken during the meeting.
In this regard, the CM also sought a project plan. He said that Lahore would have the honour of being the first smart city in Pakistan.
According to The Nation, he continued by saying that the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) will assist in the digitalization of the city of Lahore and that urban utilities will be provided via a mobile application.
Moreover, Baba Bulleh Shah’s tomb in Kasur will also be renovated to resemble the architecture of the Wazir Khan Mosque.
Last week, CM Punjab attended the induction ceremony of MPA Khayal Ahmad Kastro as minister at the Governor House. Khayal Ahmad Kastro was sworn in by Governor Balighur Rehman.
The CM congratulated the newly appointed minister on taking the oath and expressed confidence that he will execute his duties responsibly while working to serve the people. The administration is focused on the welfare of the public, and it is taking every effort to provide assistance to the citizens.
CM Elahi earlier said that Punjab is the most suitable province for investment and we have formulated a policy to give on lease uncultivated land on 30-year period.
