ISLAMABAD, MAR 7 – Work of Capital Development Authority (CDA) on the manufacturing of a new portrait of Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah is underway. The portrait will be inaugurated on March 23.  The portrait has been designed by renowned designer Jamal Shah.

According to detail, portrait of Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah which was displayed at Express Way was damaged by the heavy rains in the August of last year.
