LASBELA: Former Balochistan Assembly speaker Muhammad Aslam Bhootani has said that it is correct that the people of Gwadar are the main beneficiary of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.

“If I become an MNA and the people of Gwadar elect me, I promise that the people of the area will not be running from pillar to post with gallons in their hands in search of drinking water,” said the independent candidate of NA-272 Lasbela and Gwadar while addressing a gathering in Gadani on Saturday.
