ISLAMABAD: A Senate panel on Tuesday directed the National Highway Authority (NHA) to give top priority to much-awaited M6 Hyderabad-Sukkur Motor­way (HSM).

The Senate Standing Commit­tee on Planning and Development reviewed HSM project and direc­ted the NHA leave all other road projects and immediately start HSM.

“Dissolve National Highway Authority and hand over national highways and motorways to provinces,” she said while expressing annoyance for not initiating the construction work on HSM.

“Halt all other projects unless and until Hyderabad-Sukkur Motorway is started,” she added.
