The proposal involves erecting towering commercial centres at the sites of Rescue 1122 Academy and Camp Jail.

As per the estimates, the development of the area into a CBD has the potential to generate billions of rupees for the provincial government.

In a meeting held recently, Punjab Caretaker Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi discussed the proposal and instructed the relevant authorities to prepare a comprehensive plan for the commercial buildings.
