this rail project will help to change the image of pakistan in world. but i think govt. will face lot of problems in this huge projet.
1: cost of projet: cost of project will be more than $ 5 billion. can pakistan bear it ? if govt. can bear it , how they recover all the cost so that they build more.....
2: security : every one know it there is lot of security issue in pakistan after completion of project it 'll be main target of terroist how they manage security.
however i like that pakistan will complete this project.
First of all why every person thinks Pakistan does not have funds? She is also making its budgets like India and other soverign countries. Although the funds are not as large as other bigger economies but still we allocate some part of our funds in all sectors including Pakistan railway for development projects and in this project i believe ADB was involved and i am sure some foreign investors too will be involved in this project.
Good to hear Indian connection, yeas we can build it in 4 years flat. 1st phase in 2 years 2nd will take 3 years maximum.
And the duration can be shorter if Pakistan don't have problem like environment lobby or land acquisition which is the reason for delays in projects in India and cost escalation.
BTW, What is the current status?????
In my knowledge no such construction is going on.
Its under construction.............. The project was temporarily suspended for couple of weeks/months but it started again in 2009 so it may delay a bit but will definitely be completed Insha'Allah.
