Review Meeting on Progress in Merged Areas Development Projects

Progress on integrated district development projects is the top priority of the government, which is why the government is closely monitoring the development projects of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa integrated districts. A meeting was held in the P&D department regarding the progress on three major projects of the health department in the merged districts. During the meeting, the Monitoring and Evaluation Directorate of the P&D Department presented a monitoring report on three ongoing projects of the Health Department in the integrated districts at a cost of about Rs. 4.5 billion. The report examines in detail the status of medical professionals, facilities and medical equipment provided to various health centers and hospitals in the integrated districts under the projects. For this purpose, Directorate of Monitoring and Evaluation formed 7 teams for merged districts.
