The government was taking effective measures for industrial development, said Punjab Minister for Industry and Commerce Mian Aslam Iqbal. He expressed these views while addressing a meeting of industrialists and traders at the Gujranwala Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) on Friday. He further said that vocational training programmes had been launched as per requirements of the industry in the Technical Education & Vocational Training Authority (TEVTA). He added, “The Punjab Employment Scheme has been launched at a cost of Rs30 billion to boost trade and economic activities.” The minister announced the construction of a 16 km link road to connect Gujranwala with the Sialkot Motorway besides the construction of a new industrial estate on the Lahore-Sialkot Motorway. He remarked, “The past rulers did not pay attention to problems of industry and industrialists. The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf-led government has taken practical steps to resolve problems of industrialists.” GCCI President Umar Ashraf Mughal, Commissioner Syed Gulzar Hussain Shah, Deputy Commissioner Lieutenant Sohail Ashraf, industrialists and traders also attended the meeting.
