RAWALPINDI, Sep 30 (APP):The Rawalpindi Cantonment Board has planned construction of a new slaughterhouse at Bhatta Chowk to provide improved and more organised facilities for slaughtering and handling of animals in the cantonment area.
According to official sources, the proposed slaughterhouse will be developed over an area of approximately 16 kanals, with the estimated cost of the construction project placed at around Rs140 million.
