Introduction
Industries are of great importance when it comes to the development of a nation. All the
developed countries in the world such as USA, Japan, China, European countries have one thing
in common, they are all industrialized. They have a strong backbone to support their system.
Developed industries give potential for the nation to grow and expand positively.
Underdeveloped countries such as Pakistan, Bangladesh, Philippines and Vietnam had to rely
on the agricultural abilities to survive.
Through industrialization, many hurdles can be overcome such as unemployment, economic
stability etc. It also allows for other sectors to have a chance to grow as well.
When it comes to Pakistan, since its creation it has faced countless and endless difficulties.
Pakistan became independent with insufficient financial resources as well as military assets.
There were no electrical or water resources that stopped the industries from growing at first,
but little by little, the industrial sector of Pakistan came to be developed.
Due to the recent issue of COVID-19, the industrial business of Pakistan is affected negatively.
According to the research conducted by TheNews, “The industrial sector is struggling to stay
afloat amid the lockdown, with growing number of industrialists are burdened with high tax
and interest rates.”
The lockdown has resulted negatively in every economy, but it is hitting Pakistan hard because
the local industrial business are struggling to keep their business from going out. The
government at the moment is trying to release relief funds to compensate the loss being done,
and funds like EOBI and WWF are issued for industrial workers to protect them from starvation.
The government has promised to keep everything in control and going once this period of
pandemic is passed. Thus, industries are expected to start their work soon.
This graph illustrates the growth of Industrial sector in recent years, this particular sector has
shown sign of improvement and it grew with a percentage of 5.80% in 2015-2016.
