Raisani opposes creation of new provinces

19 May, 2012

Balochistan Chief Minister Nawab Aslam Raisani on Friday opposed the creation of new provinces in the country. "Balochistan is facing financial problems for the construction of Gwadar roads but Islamabad don't not take any care. How many provinces will be created by the government, if it could not take care of one province? Federal government should also make Islamabad a province," he expressed these views in a meeting of National Assembly's Standing Committee on Ports and Shipping.
He said that the economy of the country was linked with the development of Gwadar but Finance Ministry was not releasing funds for completion of various road projects connecting Gwadar Port with rest of the Country.
