The Punjab government has intensified efforts to advance a proposed steel mill project in Chiniot, seeking to tap into the district’s substantial iron ore reserves and strengthen the province’s industrial capacity.
Provincial Secretary for Mines and Minerals, Pervaiz Iqbal, visited Chiniot on Monday to assess progress on land acquisition for the project. He was accompanied by Deputy Commissioner Ayesha Rizwan and other senior officials.
During the visit, the secretary held detailed discussions with district authorities and inspected potential sites designated for the steel mill. Officials provided briefings on the estimated volume of iron ore deposits, proposed mining methods, processing infrastructure, and the overall land requirements for the project.
The initiative is being viewed as a significant step toward enhancing industrial activity in Punjab while effectively utilizing local mineral resources. Authorities believe the project could help reduce Pakistan’s dependence on imported steel and contribute to long term economic growth.
Iqbal directed relevant departments to ensure that land acquisition is carried out in a transparent and timely manner to prevent delays. He also stressed the need for strong inter departmental coordination to keep the project on schedule.
District officials assured full administrative support, noting that efforts are underway to ensure smooth execution and adherence to development timelines.
Once operational, the Chiniot steel mill is expected to create employment opportunities and stimulate downstream industries, particularly in construction and manufacturing.
