KHOST CITY (Pajhwok): Construction work on two small irrigation dams was launched on Wednesday in southeastern Khost province. The World Bank-funded dams are being constructed east of Khost City on a natural steam crossing through the Farm Bagh area. Acting governor Abdul Jabbar Naeemi, who laid the foundation stone, said the dams were being built at a cost of 30 million aghhanis. The projects also included the construction of two water channels, he said, adding the dams would be completed over the next few months.
