ISLAMABAD: All the chambers of commerce and industries across the country including the Federation of Pakistan Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI) vehemently condemned vandalism by the activists of Pakistan Awami Tehrik and Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaf and termed it a conspiracy against the country.
Acting FPCCI President Shaukat Ahmad said that “Acts of vandalism, destroying or damaging public property deliberately, especially Parliament and PM houses, is not democracy.” He said that PAT Chief Tahirul Qadri and PTI Chief Imran Khan were somehow promoting the politics of confrontation and agitation instead of strengthening the fragile democratic system in the country.
He said the country had been passing through a critical phase and it was the need of the hour that both economy and democracy were strengthened for the interest of the nation and the country.
He said that agitation had been causing huge losses to the national economy, besides hampering economic growth. It is also adversely affecting foreign investment flow to the company, he added.
Shaukat said that in prevailing global scenario, states now absolutely rely on sound economy. He said that to achieve this target, political stability was imperative. He said that one-day strike call causes billions of rupees loss to national kitty besides rendering millions of daily wagers jobless.
Newly elected Chairman United Business Group, the largest alliance of chambers in the country Iftikhar Ali Malik announced that entire business community once again reposed full confidence in the leadership of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.
Under prevailing circumstance, the elected government must complete its five year term for sustained economic growth.
