This refers to a news item appearing in a section of the press titled "CEO EDB grilled by Dar" and "EDB becomes no-go area for auto industry". The Board has clarified that the news is contradictory in itself since the industry has been working smoothly for the past two years and rarely industrialists now visit the office for speedy disposal of cases.
"This office in fact is now being well appreciated for efficient disposal of cases regarding auto sector which were previously accumulated in huge numbers that resulted in frequent visits of industrialists for priority disposal of their cases. There were no investigations against the officer and enhancement in quotas are being done as per procedures.
"Further, the news regarding the discussion in ECC on new entrant case of an applicant, the chair was of the view that the new entrant policy for motorcycle industry should be revisited to clarify certain ambiguities for which a committee under the convenorship of secretary I&P has already been constituted," the clarification concludes.
