GWADAR fishermen fear losing their livelihood because of the six-lane Bay Expressway about to be built. This expressway starts from Gwadar and goes all the way to the Makran coastal highway. This restrains fishermen’s access to sea.
Secondly, the people of Gwadar lack clean drinking water, education, health and infrastructure.
The recent visit of Prime Minister Imran Khan brought some hope to the people. Mr Khan pledged to address the issues pertaining to fishermen by constructing some bridges which people have demanded previously.
I hope people’s demands will be considered and their issues resolved.
