Govt to Inaugurate Nimroz s Kamal Khan Dam in Days
The much-anticipated Kamal Khan Dam in the western province of Nimroz is prepared for its inauguration within the next few days, officials said on Monday.
The dam is located 95 kilometers from the city of Zaranj in the Chaharborjak district in Nimroz.
The dam built along the Helmand River in the Chaharbarak district will irrigate 174,000 hectares of land in three districts and will also supply water to the provincial center.
The dam is expected to provide nine megawatts of power, and, in the first stage, it will store 52 million cubic meters of water, according to the National Water Affairs Regulation Authority.
The Ministry of Finance has not resubmitted a reviewed version of the draft budget plan to the parliament despite being 20 days already into the current fiscal year.
