The new venture, which was formally announced on Tuesday with the signing of an MOU, aims to create a “world without waste.” For now, in the first phase, this concept will only be applied to a one-kilometer route in the federal capital.
Rana Shakeel Asghar, Member Finance and Environment at CDA signed the deal on behalf of the development authority. Before signing the contract, he claimed that the project was thoroughly vetted with environmental specialists and government officials.
“We believe in a clean and green Pakistan, but we also believe in working with each other to extensively create results,” he said.
