The SIEN project, estimated to cost Rs 160 billion, was approved for implementation in several districts including Kasur, Okara, Pakpattan, Wahari, Bahawalnagar, Lodhran and Bahawalpur. The initiative aims to connect these regions through an extensive network of motorways, GT roads and the Indus Highway, with the aim of strengthening connectivity and driving economic growth.
Since then, the landscape of Punjab’s governance has evolved, with Maryam Nawaz now assuming the role of Chief Minister, adding to the legacy of ambitious development projects initiated by her predecessors.
