The soaping industry is also on the rise. Faisalabad also has the privilege of hosting Quaid -e -Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Quaid -e -Azam visited here during the Pakistan Movement in 1943 and addressed a gathering of thousands of Muslims in the field of Dhobi Ghat.

Faisalabad is a century -old city and its cultural roots are not deep and old. Dr. Saeed Akhtar Durrani, a scientist in the field of science, was born in Faisalabad. The star was awarded the distinction in return for scientific services. Another scientist here is Dr. MA Great. The late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan gained a unique position in Qawwali and specific singing and gained international fame.

Politicians, bureaucracy, civil society, businessmen, industrialists have a huge role in the development of Faisalabad. Various political parties of Pakistan also started many of their movements in Faisalabad. In Faisalabad, several commissioners, deputy commissioners were appointed. Everyone played a role in enhancing its beauty in their own style. DC Naseem Sadiq, who was posted in Faisalabad, spent a long time in Faisalabad. He had taken home in people's hearts on the basis of his work and performance. The child of Faisalabad was familiar with the name of Naseem Sadiq. They cleared Faisalabad from professional beggars. The elimination of transport bases from Abdullahpur, cleaning under the Jhala bridge, eliminating workshops near the station, eliminating encroachments from Jhumra Chowk and other plans were included. He was famous for knowing to work with people and knew to work with people and even knew how to establish a government writ. He was visiting the streets early in the morning, visiting the markets. They left their pictures wherever they went. Subsequently, it is said that another Naseem Sadiq has arrived in Faisalabad. Now that Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz has decided to clear the entire Punjab from the encroachments, Faisalabad, which is the center of business, comes from other cities to buy traders. And is the most revenue city. It was also a matter of passing through its markets. The shopkeepers had rented the road in front of their shop, leaving the spine, sticks or crackers. And thousands of rupees used to collect monthly rent. And it was heard that the corporation staff also received their entire share. Dakandra did not allow anyone to park a motorcycle, a car in front of his shop.

The target commissioner, deputy commissioner and Mosanpel Corporation were also handed over to other areas of the city along with eight markets. Commissioner Salvat Saeed also tried to perform well but perhaps the ticket holders of Faisalabad did not meet the standards. And she left from Faisalabad.

Azmat Firdous Deputy CEO Municipal Corporation is being called the second Nassim Sadiq of Faisalabad. Who is a domineering, courageous and hardworking officer. I met him in various NGO programs, reflecting the truth and the spirit of working in his speeches. I gave them my Radio Pakistan FM 93 When invited to contact the current program -based program, he filled the supporters. And participated in the live program. Even during the program, she was talking with a lot of confusion, confidence and a spirit of patriotism and was answering my questions as well as answering live questions. Even during the informal conversation after the program, what I saw most of them was a factor of courage and honesty. She told her that she belonged to a village in the Chiniot area.

Now that the target of elimination of the encroachments has also been entrusted to them, they are working with the same courage that they were seen in them. Don't work. She is visiting the house in the house and in other markets and is also monitoring the operation. Although traders and shopkeepers do not like them and their performance is being criticized. The heads of the association traders are also holding meetings with them to resolve the issue in some way. But they say they can transfer them, but do not back down.

If Faisalabad wants to see his city even more beautiful, then Naseem Sadiq To has to allow his greatness to work, his work will not be criticized. Instead of confusing matters, you have to take the solution. Traders should also understand the fraud of the matter and support the administration in eliminating the encroachments and foster their business.

At the same time, civil society will have to stand with greatness. Otherwise the city is now open. All the markets are free from encroachments. If you stand home for an hour, you will see the district council building. They will be done again, and then the corporation staff will start receiving the arrangements. Similarly, there will be no place to pass. And the clean city will become a dream.
