I have been looking up information regarding this proposed government project for some time now, yet there is little to no discussion regarding the same on this forum.
Initially, i believed this to be just another dream in a never-ending pipeline filled with red-tape and scandals. However, the pace at which the current government is operating in its economic capacity has made me reconsider.
I would like all zameen members (moderators, novices and experts) to contribute their sincere opinion towards the discussion; will this project ever become a reality considering the approved monorail (over the canal) and the ring road. A new airport has been planned at sharakpur as well.
I am providing a list of resources for zameen members below, so there can be a better understanding of the dynamics of the proposed project:

You may be able to come across additional (yet, dated) information that i have not been able to include in the thread.
