The setting up of military courts after 21st constitutional amendment for speedy trial of criminals involved in terrorist activities will not only create fear among terrorist organisations but this unavoidable step had to be taken to ensure security and safety to business community in general and specifically to construction sector.
This was stated in a joint statement issued by Chairman ABAD Junaid Ashraf Taloo, Vice Chairman ABAD Mohammad Hanif Memon, and Regional Chairman South Region ABAD Mohammad Hassan Bakshi. Office-bearers of ABAD congratulated President Mamnoon Hussain, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Chief of Army Staff General Raheel Sharif and hoped that people from all walks of life would be able to continue their activities without any fear. They said majority of political parties had shown their patriotism by voting in favour of the 21st amendment of the constitution. "The whole nation stands united against the terrorists and an upsurge in commercial and industrial activities in the coming months can be expected which will bring stability to the economy."
Chairman ABAD Junaid Ashraf Taloo said terrorists would Inshaallah not be able to find any place to hide themselves as all nationals of Pakistan would play their role towards that end. Vice Chairman ABAD Muhammad Hanif Memon said various steps taken by the government would increase the confidence of building and construction industry which had been damaged by the barbaric and brutal attack on our innocent children. Regional Chairman ABAD Muhammad Hassan Bakshi said that builders and developers extended full support to all measures taken by the government, armed forces and other law enforcing agencies.-PR
