KARACHI: Sindh Minister for Local Government Syed Nasir Hussain Shah on Friday announced that a One-Window Operation office is being set up at ABAD House.
Speaking at an inaugural ceremony of the three-day ABAD In-House Exhibition of construction products, Shah said the office will simplify project approvals and address the problems of builders and developers.
He said that the Sindh government is moving towards digitisation alongside a Single-Window Operation, with the Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA) working to resolve the sector’s issues on a priority basis.
On the division of Sindh, he said the Pakistan People’s Party’s position is that the people of Sindh would decide the province’s future. A referendum could be held, he said, but a bill creating a new province would still need a two-thirds majority in the provincial assembly.
He said work is under way on more than 150 roads across Sindh, and urged that discussions focus on development and investment. He said the business community should be given maximum facilities so capital stays in Pakistan.
Governor Hashmi urged participating companies to explore export markets, saying higher exports would support economic growth.
Some 23 companies, including Port Celano, Popular, City Tiles, GM Tiles and World Ceramics, are showcasing tiles, furniture, fans and other building materials. Chairman ABAD Hanif Gohar along with Senior ABAD office-bearers and heads of the SBCA and Karachi Development Authority were present at the event.
