Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif meets with Asian Development Bank delegation, discusses ML-1 project
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif recently met with a high-level delegation from the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The primary purpose of this meeting was to discuss ongoing development projects and economic cooperation issues in Pakistan.

At the conclusion of the meeting, both sides expressed their commitment to further strengthening the partnership between Pakistan and the Asian Development Bank. It is expected that the commencement of work on this project will usher in a new era for Pakistan's transport sector.
