The Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), while expressing concern over impounding of cargo containers for road blockade, has urged the authorities concerned to use only empty containers for necessary blockade as containers having tradable goods would incur a loss of billions of rupees to the businessmen in general and exporters in particular.

LCCI office bearers; President Irfan Iqbal Sheikh, Senior Vice President Ali Hussam Asghar and Vice President Mian Zahid Jawaid Ahmad in their joint statement on Friday said that cargo containers, loaded with chemicals and other flammable material, may cause any untoward incident besides causing huge loss to the business community.

"The Lahore Chamber has received a number of complaints from the businessmen that at quite a few places the authorities were using containers filled with material that is not good thing as a large number of industrial chemicals are very dangerous".
