The Islamabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ICCI) has reaffirmed its strong commitment to ensuring an enabling environment for the business community and vowed to stand shoulder to shoulder with the affectedest of the ‘Mall of Islamabad’ project in their struggle for justice.
Speaking to a delegation of affected businessmen who are members of the ICCI and called on him at Chamber House on Wednesday, the ICCI President Nasir Mansoor Qureshi said that ICCI considers it a sacred duty to protect the legitimate rights of the business community and will leave no stone unturned in this regard.
The delegation apprised the ICCI President of the serious concerns arising from the proposed auction scheduled for September 3, 2025, stressing that over 220 units purchased by third parties must be excluded from the auction. They argued that the allottees of these units had fulfilled their contractual obligations and therefore cannot be penalized for the default of the original allottee or any third party.
President Qureshi assured the delegation that ICCI would extend its full advocacy and legal support to the affectees. He pledged that the Chamber would actively raise the matter at all relevant forums and play its due role in ensuring that no injustice is done to the lawful allottees of the Mall of Islamabad project.
He emphasized that safeguarding the interests of genuine investors and protecting their rights is essential to strengthen confidence in the real estate and business sectors. He added that ICCI will continue to pursue this matter with seriousness until a fair and just resolution is achieved.
ICCI Senior Vice President Abdul Rehman Siddiqui, Vice President Nasir Mehmood Chaudhry and advisor to ICCI President Naeem Siddiqui also shared their insights over the matter.
