Malik Sagheer and Malik Sohail said that decisions taken by the baboo shahi without consulting stakeholders have proved useless in the past and it will not work in the future.

They have a controversial and partial executive board, it lacks any constitution, election schedule and have failed to publish voters list so that it can be scrutinised, they said.
The business leaders said that rejected elements have formed such groups in past to derail business community but now they stands unmasked therefore they have lost any support.
The TWA officials announced full support to the Capital Unity Group in the upcoming elections and vowed to continue struggle for a just tenancy act, residential and educational projects, dispensary and proper parking place in the Blue Area.
