Sindh Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah on Wednesday welcomed the keen interest and investment of $500 million by the Aga Khan University management in the Education City project to be established in Karachi in due course of time.
He said the project would prove to be one of the best educational facilities in the country and would attract educational organisations of international standard to invest and benefit the students and educational fraternity in Pakistan.
The chief minister was talking to President Aga Khan University Firoz Rasul, who called on him along with his delegation at the CM House to discuss the modalities of the project.
He said efforts were being made to complete the project within the tenure of this PPP-led government in Sindh. He asked the university management to start working on their part and take the lead in the implementation of the project. He said once the Aga Khan University started work, the other stakeholders would follow suit.
