LAHORE : CBD Punjab CEO Imran Amin said that we must work ahead of our planned schedule to ensure the timely completion of the IT Tower, as per the directions of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz. “The IT Tower project is crucial to the future of technology in Pakistan, and we cannot afford delays." He instructed the project team to increase the workforce to meet these goals and ensure seamless progress.

He issued these instructions during his visit to CBD NSIT City on Saturday. The visit was arranged to review the progress of the IT Tower and other infrastructure development projects.

Central Business District Punjab (CBD Punjab) has completed the foundation work for IT Tower, a flagship development within the highly anticipated CBD NSIT City, Pakistan’s first and largest IT city.

Following this accomplishment, CBD Punjab has commenced work on the roof slab of the basement, which is expected to be completed soon.

During his visit, he inspected the construction activities and chaired a comprehensive progress review meeting with key officials, including Executive Director Technical Riaz Hussain, Director Project Management Asif Iqbal, Director Construction Asif Babar, Director Engineering Umar Hayat, and representatives from Nespak.

At the meeting, CEO Imran Amin was briefed that the foundation work had been successfully completed, with ongoing efforts focusing on the construction of the retaining wall, roof slab, and columns.

CEO CBD Punjab, Imran Amin, expressed his satisfaction with the progress but emphasised the need for the project to advance beyond the planned schedule.
