The PML-N leader said, “The government is facing many challenges. There are big challenges of inflation, unemployment, energy, and law and order in the country, on which the government will have a special focus.

It is desired that like Karachi and other chambers, Islamabad Chamber should establish its own hospital. The ICCI will make every possible effort to provide convenience to the business community and citizens of Islamabad. We will talk to CDA for the provision of plot for the establishment of a hospital and medical centre, he maintained.
