Minister for Planning and Development Ahsan Iqbal says all projects in science, technology and engineering sectors will be restarted at a faster pace.

Speaking at National Centre for Artificial Intelligence in Islamabad today (Tuesday), he said the government will focus on providing access to young scientists and engineers to international state of the art education and skills so they can become a production house for international IT and science industry.

About the political situation of the country, the Minister for Planning said currently the challenge before the coalition government is to revive the economy and improve our access to international markets.

Ahsan Iqbal said we have to overcome deprivations of the people of Balochistan and restart work on the stalled CPEC projects.
