Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has called for the Council of Common Interests (CCI) to deliberate on the proposed canal projects on the Indus River, emphasizing the need for consensus among provinces on water distribution matters.
Green Pakistan Initiative: While supporting the Green Pakistan project aimed at boosting agricultural investment, Bilawal stressed that such initiatives should not compromise the water rights of any province.
Recent Developments: A PPP delegation, led by Bilawal, met with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to express concerns over the canal projects. The Prime Minister assured the delegation of addressing their reservations, though official statements from the Prime Minister’s Office did not specifically mention this assurance.
