Transcript
00:00There was a fire in the Peace Centre and many merchants were harmed.
00:03Did the Chamber take any responsibility for this?
00:05The Chamber has no mechanism.
00:07The Chamber has become a platform for the protection of the rights of a few families.
00:11We want to get rid of it from that grip.
00:16Greetings. I am currently in the Lahore Chamber of Commerce.
00:19And on 24th September, the Lahore Chamber of Commerce elections are going to take place.
00:24With me today is Hafiz Sajjad.
00:26He is a member of the Triple P-A Alliance, which has a voter turnout of 16 to 30.
00:33There are 6 to 7 lakh industrialists and businessmen in Lahore.
00:3732,000 of them are members of the Lahore Chamber of Commerce.
00:43And these 32,000 businessmen select about 32 representatives from the Lahore Chamber of Commerce.
00:53We know from him that in the Lahore Chamber of Commerce,
00:57the Mauritian politics has been seen.
00:59That is, there is a family.
01:01Below that, there is another family.
01:03His nephew, nephew, son.
01:05And in the same way, all the matters are going on.
01:08If he gets elected, wins the election, then what will be his VN?
01:13And how will he run this Chamber?
01:15Mr. Hafiz, first tell us your VN. What is your group's VN?
01:19The Lahore Chamber is Pakistan's largest chamber.
01:21And the business community of Lahore has nominated us for the election.
01:25For 25 years, there has been a show going on here.
01:27The Mauritian politics is going on.
01:29The sitting president is also the son of a former president.
01:32There was a president before him.
01:34His father was also the president.
01:36Now the sitting members are sitting with their relatives.
01:38These are the sitting members with me.
01:40They know that there is no election inside them.
01:42The day these sitting members become members, they are deprived of their rights.
01:45The chambers are locked.
01:47And there is no respect for any trader here.
01:50You can see this six-story building.
01:52This six-story building belongs to three families.
01:54And for 25 years, they have been sharing monkeys with each other.
01:57Your son, my son next year, and his son next year.
02:00And now the Lahore Chamber has made a lot of progress here.
02:03Now that Dada has made his son, it's the turn of the grandsons.
02:06What is the guarantee that if you come, you will bring your son or brother?
02:09You said a very beautiful thing.
02:10There is a difference between us and them.
02:12We have 30 candidates.
02:14Among those 30 candidates, we have an alliance of three groups.
02:16PYAF, PBG, Progressive Alliance.
02:18No chairman's son, no chairman's brother, no chairman's relative is fighting in the elections.
02:22And look at our opposite. Who are they?
02:24We have three relatives together to make one of our brothers the president.
02:27They did it last year that we have been in the elections for two years.
02:30And what is your message?
02:31Our message is that the respect of the common trader should be there.
02:33His rights should be returned to him.
02:37And the red carpet system inside the Lahore Chamber,
02:40a system of red light, a super elite class rules here.
02:43It should end.
02:44The common trader should get his rights here.
02:47What are the issues of Baranat Road?
02:49What are the issues of Shah Alam?
02:50What are the issues of Hall Road?
02:51What are the issues of Hafiz Center?
02:52They should be discussed here.
02:56There was a fire in the Hafiz Center.
02:57Many traders were damaged.
02:59Did the Chamber take any responsibility in this?
03:01The Chamber has no mechanism.
03:03The Chamber has become a platform for the protection of the rights of a few families.
03:07We want to get it out of that grip, God willing.
03:10And the Lahore Chamber, you ask me.
03:12These sitting members are standing.
03:14What is their respect here?
03:15Is there any truth and respect here?
03:18What Mr. Hafiz said was absolutely right in terms of Marusi politics.
03:21And the board members who are elected here,
03:23like Mr. Hafiz, who is one of the 30 members to be selected.
03:26The 30 members who come here, they try,
03:28of those families, that their rights should be given to the president first.
03:32These people do the electing, right?
03:34Your Tajid community.
03:36I think the business community of Lahore has understood this style and this cycle.
03:41In this election, you will see that,
03:43Alhamdulillah, the entire business community of Lahore,
03:45along with their stamp, will end the grip of this Marusi politics on these families,
03:49on this Chamber.
03:53What is the final mark?
03:5416 to 30.
03:5516 to 30.
03:56Every voter will come.
03:57He has to elect 15 people.
03:5915 will be in the corporate class and 15 in the associate class.
04:01The corporate class election is taking place on 23rd September.
04:04And the associate class election is taking place on 24th September.
04:07So whoever comes, will vote for people from 16 to 30.
04:11My serial number is 23.
04:12But we are 15 candidates.
04:14We have a full panel.
04:15Inshallah, we will restore your dignity here.
04:19Inshallah, we will bring back the sanctity of this sacred event.
04:23And these 6 levels and 3 families,
04:26this will not work in the Lahore Chamber.
04:29How do you define the role of PBG?
04:32PBG is our senior vice chairman.
04:34He is Youngblood.
04:35He is the ex-VP of the Lahore Chamber.
04:37Sir, tell us.
04:38I am the youngest vice president of the Lahore Chamber.
04:41I was very eager to come to this chamber.
04:43I saw the building.
04:44I worked hard.
04:45I tried.
04:46And I worked for those elders who sit in the drawing room
04:49and make our decisions in 16th degree.
04:51We worked a lot for them.
04:53After working, we were seen that we are great.
04:56We are great only to implement their policies.
04:59We are disheartened.
05:00We are happy at this time.
05:01We realised it very soon.
05:03People said, leave them at the wrong time.
05:05We left them at their peak.
05:06And today, you see, the summary is
05:09Alhamdulillah, this panel is ready.
05:11These 30 people are those who represent the industry.
05:15Each and every one of our merchants
05:17is serving the business community.
05:19And this alliance was not done by Haris Sateek
05:21nor by Hafiz Sajjad.
05:23It was done by all the voters and members of the Lahore Chamber.
05:26It was their wish that there should be an alliance
05:28which is pure of immorality,
05:30which is only for the service of merchants.
05:34Their election is on 24th September.
05:36Their electoral target is between 16th and 30th.
05:41And the 23rd number is theirs.
05:43Those who want to select merchants,
05:46those who want to elect, they can elect.
05:48Those who are their favourite leaders,
05:50they have the right to choose them.
05:52The beauty of any democracy is that
05:54there should be a very positive competition.
05:57Let's see if Hafiz Sahib wins on 24th September
05:59or his competitors win.
06:01We will keep their results in front of you.
06:05I am Azman.
06:06Please allow me to leave.
06:07Keep watching Daily Pakistan.
