Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani chaired today, Sunday, a meeting devoted to discuss service projects and infrastructure projects for Al-Diwaniyah Governorate in the federal general budget, during which the planned projects in the governorate were reviewed.

Al-Sudani was briefed, according to a statement by his office, on the proposed projects, the distribution of these projects within the governorate, and stressed the need to keep projects and their implementation away from political or electoral influences, and to distance the services provided to citizens from any political interference or attempt to recruit and propagandistic exploitation.

The Prime Minister renewed his directives for the projects to focus on the priorities identified in the government program, in infrastructure projects, including sanitation, water, electricity, health, education and public services projects.

Al-Sudani directed all governorates to commit to implementing projects that are compatible with the government program, and that they do not conflict with the government’s vision regarding the priority of implementing infrastructure projects, and then moving on to complementary or secondary projects.

With regard to the implementation of sanitation projects, the Prime Minister directed, during the meeting, to proceed with the implementation and completion of sewage networks in nine districts in Diwaniyah Governorate, as it represents a priority that must be completed in conjunction with the completion of the rest of the service.
