LAHORE: Inspector General of Police (IGP) Shoaib Dastagir and LCCI President Irfan Iqbal Sheikh on Thursday inaugurated state-of-the-art "Police Khidmat Markaz" at the Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry. The Police Khidmat Markaz that would have over 14 services in its fold is a revolutionary measure of the Lahore Chamber of Commerce & Industry as its members can have all facilities at one window.

IGP Shoaib Dastagir said that establishment of Khidmat Markaz is an ample proof of the fact that the objective of the police department and LCCI is same and both are committed to facilitating the community. He said that business is the engine of growth and its role is crucial for wealth creation. Businessmen should collaborate with the police department as the state cannot run all the affairs alone.

He said that the Punjab police department has launched a global portal for overseas Pakistanis so that they can get police related service with ease. He said that Safe City Project gave immense results and it was planned to start in five more cities but scarcity of funds turned out to be a hurdle. He said that the projects of Safe City Project and model police stations can be expanded through public private partnership.

He said that Police Khidmat Marakaz have been established to create goodwill in the police department. He said that it is the prime duty of the police force to cooperate and relationship of trust with the community. This is also an admitted fact that the crimes cannot take roots in those societies where police have full trust and cooperation. He said that Istanbul is the best example of public private partnership.

He said that 1/3 vehicles of Istanbul Police have been donated by the business community. "Living nations never forget the sacrifices of their martyrs, who sacrificed their lives for protection of wealth and lives of people and for peace of their country", the IG said and added that police department has sacrificed a lot to eliminate terrorism.

LCCI President Irfan Iqbal Sheikh said that model police stations should be established in all the industrial estates and all the existing police stations covering major commercial hubs should be upgraded to model police stations.
