QUETTA, March 11: Welcoming the inauguration of the Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline project, Balochistan Governor Nawab Zulfiqar Ali Magsi said on Monday it was a great move towards ending the energy crisis being faced by the country for several years.
He said since a major portion of the pipeline would pass through Balochistan, its people should be the main beneficiary of this project.
“I hope Balochistan’s interests will be protected while implementing this project,” the governor said, adding it would also help improve provincial economy.
He said signing of the pipeline agreement with Iran was a historical event and launching of this project was a great achievement of the government.
