RAWALPINDI: Liaquat Ali Chatta, Commissioner of the Rawalpindi Division, has instructed the authorities to expeditiously finalize the Rawalpindi Safe City Project, which is scheduled to be launched on January 30.
A representative for the Commissioner’s office stated that the Commissioner examined the project’s construction work while on a visit to the safe city project site.
“January 30 is the deadline for making the Safe City Project Rawalpindi functional in the light of the directives of the Chief Minister of Punjab,” said the spokesperson.
He stated that every attempt was being made to finish the task within the allotted period.
According to him, the project’s initial phase would involve the installation of cameras at a number of locations, including gas stations, important mosques, churches, commercial centers, Muharram procession routes, and other locations.
According to the spokesperson, the Safe City Project will contribute to bettering the city’s law and order situation as well as the residents’ sense of security.
He continued by saying that the project would not only aid in maintaining law and order and criminal management, but it would also help manage traffic on city highways.
In order to assess the continuing construction work, the Commissioner also paid visits to the Sixth Road Metro Station, the Allama Iqbal Library, the Business Facilitation Center, and the Rawalpindi Gymkhana.
The authorities were instructed to finish all project construction as quickly as feasible.
He said that the Commissioner had visited several projects to make sure everything was in order before the Chief Minister of Punjab officially opened them.
Following the inauguration, the public would be able to access Sixth Road Metro Station.
The authorities were given the directive to finish the Metro Station Sixth Road within a few days.
The Allama Iqbal Library and Business Facilitation Center’s development work has, according to the spokesperson, been finished to a 98 percent degree.
The Allama Iqbal Library now has 20,000 books, but he added that 50,000 more books would be added and that students would have their own area in the library.
