During an interactive session with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Pakistan’s business leaders emphasized the importance of initiating trade talks with India to promote business and commerce. They believe that such talks would greatly benefit Pakistan’s economy, which is currently facing significant challenges. Despite the Prime Minister’s determination to tackle economic issues, industry leaders expressed concerns about the current business environment, citing high energy costs and inconsistent government policies as major obstacles.
The business community also urged the Prime Minister to focus on bringing political stability to the country, emphasizing its crucial role in economic revitalization.
