[00:08:45] In the provinces of the country, the Ministry of Public Works
[00:08:48] from
[00:08:52] Minister of Public Works, Mohammad Ashraf Haqnasi, the
[00:08:55] third phase of the Badghis-Qalaman
[00:08:59] highway construction project, which is kilometers long, is
[00:09:02] practically underway in
[00:09:04] various
[00:09:08] parts. It is one of Afghanistan's most important ring road projects.
[00:09:15] It starts and extends towards the Balgh Murghab district
[00:09:19] of the same province. This project is being implemented by the Ministry
[00:09:22] of Public Works of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan
[00:09:25] and the private sector.
[00:09:30] Its construction work is currently underway in various
[00:09:34] parts in an organized
[00:09:36] manner. The construction of another 25-kilometer section
[00:09:40] of this road was also started by the Ministry of Public Works
[00:09:44] in Faryab and is now practically underway.
[00:09:47] This
[00:09:51] connects the provinces of Faryab, Badghis, and Herat with each other,
[00:09:53] and under the northern and western
[00:09:57] region, it will create countless facilities
[00:10:01] in the transportation of goods for the people.
[00:10:04] Some countrymen demand the implementation of public works projects
[00:10:08] and ask the Ministry of Public Works
[00:10:10] to accelerate the establishment of infrastructure
[00:10:14] and
[00:10:17] rapid construction of new roads, which has been part of the work
[00:10:20] done by the Islamic Emirate's Ministry of Public Works over the past 5 years.
[00:10:23] This can play an important role
[00:10:27] in economic development, job creation for the people, and other
[00:10:30] issues. The public roads
[00:10:33] that connect Badakhshan to the provinces are often damaged
[00:10:37] by floods and need
[00:10:40] repair. If they are repaired,
[00:10:44] and other roads to the villages and remote areas of Badakhshan, as I mentioned
[00:10:47] earlier, Badakhshan is a mountainous province with a wide and rugged geography.
[00:10:51] If all these projects are implemented, we will be happy.
[00:10:55] The Ministry of Public Works had previously announced
[00:10:59] the construction of the second
[00:11:01] and third
[00:11:04] sections of the Kandahar-Herat road. According to the ministry,
[00:11:08] efforts are being made to expand the country's transportation network to provide
[00:11:11] safe and easy travel for people and to create
[00:11:15] more facilities for traders.
[00:11:18] The Ministry of Kazakhstan announced that its grain exports
[00:11:21] to Afghanistan increased by 57%
[00:11:25] compared to last year. The Ministry of Agriculture of Kazakhstan says
[00:11:29] that its grain exports to Afghanistan increased
[00:11:32] by 57% compared to last year. After the closure
[00:11:35] of trade routes between Afghanistan and Pakistan, Afghan traders have turned
[00:11:39] to Central Asian countries and Iranian ports
[00:11:42] for importing more food. Meanwhile, the Ministry
[00:11:46] of Agriculture, Irrigation, and Livestock says that Afghanistan needs
[00:11:49] nearly 7 million tons of grain annually, about half of which is supplied
[00:11:53] through imports.
[00:12:25] Technical consultations have increased domestic production
[00:12:29] and will bring it closer to self-sufficiency
[00:12:33] in the future. On the other hand, the Chamber of Agriculture and Livestock Products says
[00:12:36] that Afghanistan has vast lands for agriculture that can
[00:12:40] increase domestic production of wheat and grains and take significant steps
[00:12:43] towards self-sufficiency in this area through water management, distribution of improved seeds, and mechanization
[00:12:47] of agriculture. We have very high capacities
[00:12:50] within Afghanistan.
[00:12:54] We have very vast and good lands
[00:12:58] for cultivating grains and wheat
[00:13:01] and various other plants.
[00:13:05] We are also working on ways to increase production and domestic products
[00:13:09] by using high-quality fertilizers, improved
[00:13:12] seeds, and good water management and new
[00:13:16] agricultural methods,
[00:13:19] which will help increase
[00:13:23] domestic production.
[00:13:25] According to information from the Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock, 4.54
[00:13:29] million tons of wheat were produced across Afghanistan last year,
[00:13:33] and it is predicted that wheat production will also increase
[00:13:37] this year compared to last year.
[00:13:40] Ariana Afghan Airlines announced that its flights between Kabul
[00:13:44] and Delhi have returned to normal. Full report on
[00:13:47] Ariana Afghan Airlines says that the Indian Civil Aviation Authority
[00:13:50] has given it permission to operate flights
[00:13:54] to and from Kabul. Company officials said that the recent delays
[00:13:57] or cancellations of flights on this route were due to the Indian Civil Aviation Authority
[00:14:01] not issuing flight permits,
[00:14:04] but this problem has now
[00:14:07] been resolved.
[00:14:12] After this, flights will be operated immediately and regularly according
[00:14:16] to the announced schedule. As the process of issuing
[00:14:19] flight operation permits is the same for all airlines,
[00:14:23] therefore, the delays
[00:14:26] or cancellations of some flights were due to the Indian Civil Aviation Authority
[00:14:30] not issuing flight permits.
[00:14:34] She adds that passenger and cargo
[00:14:37] flights between Kabul and Delhi are now operating normally.
[00:14:40] During the disruptions, traders and passengers
[00:14:44] thanked for their cooperation and trust
[00:14:48] in this regard. Currently,
[00:14:50] through Ariana Afghan Airlines, daily passenger
[00:14:54] and cargo flights between Kabul
[00:14:57] are operating normally and regularly, which will have a positive impact
[00:15:01] on the commercial
[00:15:02] and economic
[00:15:05] relations between the two countries. The company thanks its passengers
[00:15:09] for their patience, cooperation, and trust during the recent delays.
[00:15:13] Ariana Afghan Airlines pledges to continue providing
[00:15:16] safe and reliable
[00:15:19] air services.
[00:15:25] A new workshop and expansion of green spaces in the capital have been allocated
[00:15:29] 570 million Afghanis.
[00:15:32] All citizens are requested to make good use of all
[00:15:35] green areas, as green areas, which are resources in big cities
[00:15:39] like Kabul, are recreational places and can play
[00:15:42] a very good role in improving
[00:15:46] the mental state of people living in the city.
[00:15:49] That is, it can create a diversity
[00:15:52] of life in a city, in a region. It is important to work
[00:15:56] on creating green areas, especially
[00:15:59] regarding their sustainability and irrigation.
[00:16:02] With the financial support of partner organizations of the Kunar Public Health Department,

[00:18:43] manner.

[00:18:49] Public Health Department
[00:18:52] announces that it will establish health centers in all areas of Kunar
[00:18:55] where people are still deprived of health
[00:18:59] services.
