IHC seeks NHA fund details for Bhong Interchange

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Monday sought details from the National Highway Authority (NHA) regarding issuance of funds for Bhong Interchange project on the Multan-Sukkur motorway.

Justice Saman Rafat Imtiaz heard the case regarding the completion of the project as per the direction of the Supreme Court.

During the hearing, NHA officials assured the court that the construction work would be completed timely as per the orders. At this, the court questioned how much funds the NHA is proposing in the next year budget for the project. A day earlier, petitioner Raees Munir Ahmed appeared in the court along with his lawyer Waqar Rana and took the stand that work on the project has not yet started.
