Assurance to business community

Published November 13, 2008

KARACHI, Nov 12: Sindh Industries and Commerce Minister Rauf Siddiqui has assured the business community of giving all respect to honour and dignity of the businessmen while dealing with them in legal and other issues.

“Breach of law will be dealt with a firm hand,” the minister is quoted in a press release issued on Wednesday to have told to the members of Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry, but he agreed with businessmen that there should be no media trial and public insult of any one against whom no charges had been proved.

He informed the KCCI members that a federal government committee was engaged in trying to find a solution to power load-shedding and tariff.
