LAHORE: Lahore Chamber of Commerce & Industry (LCCI) Monday strongly condemned terrorist attacks on innocent churchgoers in Quetta and lauded the security forces for acting promptly and averting heavy loss of precious human lives.
LCCI President Malik Tahir Javaid, Senior Vice President Khawaja Khawar Rashid and Vice President Zeshan Khalil stated here that attack on church was cowardice attempt to divide the nation but whole nation in general and Christian community in particular showed unity and commitment with the country.
Terrorists had no religion as none of it allowed killing of innocent, they said.
They said that barbaric act of church attacks in Quetta demands more strict measures as this act of terrorism had badly tarnished the soft image of the country.
They called for a sustained and well coordinated action to cope with the menace of terrorism.
LCCI office-bearers said that the business community understood well that sincere and serious efforts were being made by the top brass of the Police force and Anti-terrorist agencies of Pakistan, and they have, in many ways, succeeded to uproot the menace to a great extent.
These efforts are, without doubt, greatly commendable. The sacrifices made by the Pakistan Army as well as persons from Anti-terrorist agencies in discharging their duties to the nation are worth-saluting.
The LCCI office-bearers said that the business community would not stay behind and would extend all possible cooperation to the government for the cause of national interests.
