Babar Khan instructed that no slowdown in the completion of critical projects would be tolerated. He stressed that time is short and challenges are many, therefore all engineers must ensure timely completion as the department’s top priority. He directed that all technical issues hindering progress should be resolved immediately.

The Secretary issued strict instructions to executive engineers (buildings) to ensure completion of projects within the stipulated timeframe, warning that failure to do so would result in stern action against responsible officials. He further emphasized that there must be no compromise on the quality of work.

Babar Khan directed chief engineers and superintending engineers to personally visit project sites regularly and submit progress reports every two weeks. These reports must also identify technical issues so that project speed remains unaffected and work continues without interruption.
