Islamabad: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday vowed to further strengthen Pakistan's strategic partnership with China.
He was talking to a delegation of China National Nuclear Corporation in Islamabad today.
The Prime Minister said K-3 Nuclear Power Plant built in Karachi with Chinese assistance will be inaugurated tomorrow.
He said this project will increase total production of electricity from nuclear power plants in Karachi to 2200 megawatts.
Shehbaz Sharif said China is a time-tested friend of Pakistan and strategic partnership between the two countries is ideal.
He said billions of dollars of Chinese investment under China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is a proof of strong bond between the two countries.
The Prime Minister said different projects under CPEC helped significantly in controlling the electricity shortfall in Pakistan.
During the meeting, the Prime Minister was briefed on China's investment in nuclear energy projects in Pakistan.
Earlier, PM Shehbaz Sharif vowed to overcome the menace of terrorism with collective efforts and wisdom.
Shehbaz Sharif expressed his serious concerns over the resurgence of terrorist elements especially in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
He was speaking at a meeting of the federal cabinet in Islamabad on Wednesday.
The Prime Minister said that if immediate and effective steps were not taken, the despicable incidents might spread to other parts of the country.
Shehbaz Sharif recalled that the defeat was inflicted on the terrorist elements through Radd-ul-Fasaad and Zarb-e-Azb operations because of which peace was restored in the country. He said people belonging to different walks of life including politicians rendered their lives in the war against this menace. However, the resurfacing of the terrorist elements is a matter of concern.
The Prime Minister was especially appreciative of the sacrifices rendered by the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in the war on terrorism. He said the KPK has remained our front line province in this war and its sacrifices will always be remembered in history.
Shehbaz Sharif also pointed out that the province had been given four hundred and seventeen billion rupees since 2010 to improve its counter terrorism capability. He said this was the right of the KPK but the question arises as to where that amount was spent.
