“Our aim is to elevate this facility to meet the highest international standards, ensuring it is fully equipped to welcome dignitaries and delegates for the upcoming SCO Summit and beyond,” said the chairman.
The CDA is working tirelessly to complete the renovation work, with Chairman Randhawa instructing field teams to work around the clock to meet the deadline.
