BEIJING: Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif on Monday voiced concern over Indian conspiracy, stating that the neighboring country is continuously making ‘failed attempts’ to sabotage China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) project.
“India cannot digest CPEC project,” he said that during in an interview with a private TV channel in Beijing. The chief minister gave these remarks after 10 labourers were gunned down in Balochistan on Saturday while working on link roads to connect outlying towns to the country’s $57-billion Chinese Belt and Road initiative.
The attack on the labourers took place some 20 km from the emerging port city of Gwadar in Baluchistan province that forms the southern hub of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). Gwadar’s deep-water port is the exit point for a planned route from China’s far-western Xinjiang region to the Arabian Sea.
Earlier on Saturday, Chinese President Xi Jinping met Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif after several agreements were signed between the two countries and said that the construction of CPEC would be pushed forward.
