QUETTA, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 29th Jun, 2022 ) :The Balochistan government has decided to establish the Information Technology (IT) Park at provincial capital in a bid to provide one step solution to expand IT enterprises.
The project would be expanded to establish IT parks in other big cities of the province including Gwadar.
The goals of the project were to provide e-governance, public access to digital services, and affordable and high-speed internet facility, said an official of Balochistan government.

The government, he said, had been working for the digital transformation across all government sectors in a phased manner to bring efficiency, effectiveness, and transparency in its processes for moving towards socioeconomic growth and knowledge-based economy.
The broad initiative objectives were not limited to the infrastructure and e-governance support, rather it also aimed at promoting entrepreneurial spirit so that the fruits of that technology would be available to every citizen.
