Islamabad is set to welcome a new 5-star hotel as part of a series of major infrastructure and civic development projects in the federal capital. The announcement came after Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi chaired a high-level meeting with city officials to review ongoing and upcoming initiatives.
One of the key highlights of the meeting was the approval of a state-of-the-art cricket stadium, with the Capital Development Authority (CDA) instructed to finalise designs within 10 days. The stadium is expected to host national and international matches, boosting sports tourism and providing a world-class facility for players and fans.
Alongside the stadium, authorities reviewed plans for several high-profile projects, including a smart underpass to ease traffic congestion, a national park for recreation, a modern convention centre, and enhanced Safe City surveillance systems. The proposed five-star hotel will be strategically located near the stadium, offering luxury accommodation for athletes, visitors, and tourists.
Officials also discussed improvements in law enforcement facilities, waste management, traffic control, urban development, and anti-encroachment operations. The projects are designed to enhance public services, create job opportunities, and attract both domestic and international investment.
The initiative reflects Islamabad’s broader vision of becoming a modern, well-planned city while supporting economic growth, tourism, and community welfare. With timely execution, the new hotel, stadium, and other infrastructure projects are expected to transform Islamabad into a hub for sports, business, and leisure, setting new standards for urban development in Pakistan.
