After Tarbela, the Chinese company has resumed work on Diamer Bhasha Dam, but the work on Dasu Dam is still suspended.
Sources have confirmed that the work on Dasu Dam will be resumed in a few days.
Diamer Bhasha Dam General Manager Nazakat Hussain confirmed that the Chinese company has resumed work on the dam as about 350 Chinese nationals have started work while 6,000 local staff are already working on the dam.
The Chinese company stopped work after five Chinese nationals were killed in a suicide attack on a bus of Dasu Dam engineers.
Diamer Bhasha Dam is being constructed across the Indus River between Kohistan District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Diamer District of Gilgit Baltistan.
Earlier on May 13, 2020, the Pakistani government signed a Rs442 billion contract with a joint venture of China Power and Frontier Works Organization (FWO) for the construction of the dam.
