He said the city and the port have made a lot of progress and recently. “we started building Gwadar airport with the help of the government of China, which gave $ 230 million for the project, ” he added. Regarding the proposed Gwadar Oil City, he stated that an area allocated for oil refining and oil storage is about 30 km away from the city near Pasni.
The president suggested that the port of Gwadar will run trains to the rest of the country after the completion of the railway upgrade program of Main Line 1 (ML-1). “To connect the port city to the rest of Pakistan and beyond, a new railway will be initiated from Quetta to Gwadar, ” says Bajwa.

Budgeting And Completion Of The Project
Bajwa, also Special Assistant to the Prime Minister for Information and Broadcasting, learned that CPEC’s largest project ever was ML-1.
Govt focused entirely on the growth and advancement of Balochistan to the western CPEC route.

Establishment of CPEC Authority
