Aga Khan Trust for Culture and World Bank withdraw from major Pakistani project

LAHORE, April 28: The Walled City Development Project is without a head these days and its two main supporting pillars, the Aga Khan Trust for Culture and the World Bank, are withdrawing in June and November, respectively, this year.

Project Director General Naheed Rizvi has retired from service on April 23 and the seat is vacant ever since. She was given the post on February 20, last year.

Sources claim that the absence of director general and the notified withdrawal of the two main international bodies supporting the project have put Walled City development at stake.
