He said the medical college lacks a teaching hospital for which the previous government had upgraded District Headquarter Hospital Turbat.
"A law college is under construction," said the former chief minister.
He said that Turbat needs more residential colonies and educational institutes as the population is rising day-by-day.
Earlier, the project director briefed the former chief minister about the college, saying that the project will be completed at a cost of Rs3.2 billion. “So far 70 per cent work on the project has been completed,” said Manzoor Baloch.
