Tando Adam’s Sindh Small Industries Corporation Struggles After 50 Years
Sanghar (Hasnain Ashiq Saand) Established in 1973, the Sindh Small Industries Corporation (SSIC) in Tando Adam continues to suffer from a lack of basic amenities such as a proper sewerage system, even after five decades. The industrial area, home to approximately 76 factories, including flour mills, oil mills, Paper factories, power looms, and confectionery manufacturing units, faces severe operational challenges.
Despite being one of Sindh’s most successful small industry hubs, the SSIC in Tando Adam is plagued by negligence from its administrative officers. A recent survey highlights that the lack of a functioning sewerage system has significantly impacted factory owners, leading to operational hurdles and financial losses.
Factory owners have pointed fingers at State Officer Mustafa Panhwar, accusing him of ignoring repeated requests to address the area’s growing issues. They claim that thousands of reminders and appeals have gone unanswered, leaving the industrial hub to face an uncertain future.
“This negligence is dragging our businesses into ruin. The government needs to take immediate action to resolve these issues,” stated a factory owner.
Business owners have urged the Sindh government and relevant authorities to intervene promptly, ensure the provision of basic amenities, and restore the area’s economic potential. If the situation persists, this vital industrial hub risks further decline, causing irreparable damage to the region’s economy.
