The prime minister also lauded the efforts made by Commissioner Islamabad, who is also chairman of Capital Development Authority (CDA), for successfully completing the project within the short period.

He expressed optimism that the newly constructed underpass would help facilitate the traffic of the metropolis, and the civic agency would also complete the Serena Chowk underpass in a similar way.

He also appreciated the Islamabad Traffic Police for maintaining smooth flow of traffic on project site.

Earlier, the interior minister appreciated the entire CDA team and congratulated the Commissioner for completion of the underpass within 42 days.
