MULTAN:
A review meeting held in Multan on Friday with the commissioner in the chair stressed the need for achieving a business-friendly environment across the division.
Amir Khattak issued multiple directives during the meeting to the departments concerned.
The directives related to removing barriers to the people approaching the offices for the NOCs for starting work in the desired discipline of life.
NOCs for commercial construction should be made easier in order to get a congenial environment for business in all four districts of the division, he stressed.
All the departments should support entrepreneurs struggling to getting better commercial infrastructure for their business activities, he said.
The deputy commissioners were directed to call meetings immediately in their respective districts to meet the target, he added.
