The government of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) is planning to establish a new mega-industrial zone soon over an area of 20,000 kanals in Mirpur, official sources said. Sources informed APP that Moori on Mirpur Jatlan Road has been decided as the proposed location for the new industrial zone and the government will acquire state-owned and private land for the reason.
The sources also said that the AJK government was giving due attention towards promotion of business and industrial activities in the region where a conducive atmosphere was already available. The state government intended to provide all possible facilities to the existing and intending entrepreneurs to bring the facilities at par with other parts of the country.
Further the official said that the government also intended to give relief to those industrialists who have to face huge overhead freight charges of transportation of the raw material from various parts of Pakistan to their industrial units operating in AJK. The industrialisation of AJK will help overcoming unemployment and poverty, maintained the official.
