A sports car manufactured by the National University of Sciences and Technology, Karachi students will be unveiled at a local hotel today (Sunday). Provincial health minister Shahram Khan Tarakai will unveil the car for public viewing from 12 noon to 9pm. Named after dean of the Nust mechanical engineering department Nadeem Ahmad Shaheed, the NAS-14 car will be sent to the Formula Student Competition slated to begin in the United Kingdom on July 9.
