Those who attended the meeting were: Secretary Communications and Works, MD PHA, Additional Secretary Planning and Development and consultant of the project and others.
The CM was apprised of proposed road project, costing Rs 4 billion that would provide better connectivity to the densely populated areas of the district Peshawar including Hazar Khwani, Sorezai Bala, Pandu Payan and Badaber.
