Jan 28, 2020: Capital Development Authority (CDA) in line with its policy to complete the development works in the stalled sectors, has approved Rs. 210.552 million for installation and provision of the gas network in residual areas of sector I-14.
The payment would likely be made to SNGPL in next few days and after that SNGPL will start work on the provision of Sui-gas in the leftover areas sector I-14.
Provision of sui-gas in sector I-14 was a longstanding demand of residents of the sector as the matter was pending since 1989. However, incumbent management has now resolved the longstanding issue of the sector and has approved the release of funds amounting to Rs. 210 million. Under this project, SNGPL would lay 3470 meters long gas pipe of four inches diameter and will further establish door to door gas network in the residual area of sector I-14.
Moreover, the 29250-meter long pipeline of two inches diameter and 501110 meters long 1.25 inches diameter gas pipeline would be also laid in addition to up-gradation of existing sui-gas network and infrastructure in the sector.
CDA-DWP in its 45th meeting held in October last year, approved PC-I amounting to Rs.3112.162 millions for carrying out development works in sector I-11. Consequent upon approval of project cost, concerned formations were directed to fulfil codel formalities so that works pertaining to respective formations be carried out simultaneously.
In this context, SNGPL was approached to furnish demand notice for the provision of Sui-gas infrastructure in the residual area of the sector. After complete survey demand draft was furnished which was processed and has been accordingly approved by the authority.
It is pertinent to mention here that incumbent management of the authority acting upon an effective policy to take up development of stalled sectors took consolidated steps in this regard. In this connection, not only residual development works have been started in the stalled sectors provision of basic amenities and missing facilities in different sectors is also being ensured. Development Works on different projects are in progress, few are in advance stages and many are in pipeline.
