Federal Minister for Ports, Shipping and Privatisation, Naveed Qamar, on Saturday ordered to immediately submit the inquiry report about second fire incident in Pakistan National Shipping Corporation's building here.
The Minister issued orders during his first meeting with the Chairmen and other senior officers of Karachi Port Trust (KPT), Port Qasim Authority, Gwadar Port Authority and PNSC here at KPT Head Office. He was briefed about the present status and future plans of these four organisations.
When he enquired about the findings of the fire incidents at PNSC building, he was informed by PNSC Chairman that the inquiry report about the first fire incident had established short-circuit as the cause behind the mishap, whereas the findings about the second incident were yet to come.
Naveed directed PNSC management to ensure foolproof security arrangements so that no such incident should occur in future. He was also informed that the entire building was being repaired and equipped with all required safety grudges. The work will be completed in next couple of months.
