Body vows to resolve traders' concerns

ISLAMABAD:

The Islamabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ICCI) on Saturday assured the business community of Tarnol of fixing their core problems including law and order.

"The business community is committed to contributing to the country's economic development and prosperity through the growth of businesses. However, obstacles to creating a business-friendly environment must be addressed by those in positions of authority," acting President of ICCI Abdul Rehman Siddiqui said while addressing a large delegation from Tarnol.

The delegation was led by Malik Shabbir Awan, the founder president of the Talagang Chamber of Commerce and Industry (TCCI), which visited ICCI to offer congratulations.

He recognised Tarnol as an important business hub within the capital and emphasised that collective efforts could dismantle barriers, create opportunities, and lead the community toward greater prosperity.

Siddiqui assured the attendees that ICCI would address issues such as encroachments, water shortages, poor road conditions, inadequate street lighting, and especially the deteriorating law and order situation by bringing them to the attention of the relevant authorities for swift resolution to enable businesses to flourish in a peaceful and secure environment.

ICCI's acting Senior Vice President Nasir Mehmood Chaudhry committed to working closely with stakeholders to address key challenges and promote economic growth in the region.
