Public Safety Committee

Committee Events

As the state of Gujarat is rapidly surging ahead on the path of industrialization and growth, the issue of public safety is becoming more and more relevant. Several recent incidents in different parts of the country point out that, anti-national elements are constantly targeting our institutions, in particular the industrial units, to derail the growth. The GCCI has therefore constituted this Public Safety Committee to focus on the issues relating to public safety, in particular on industrial safety issues. The major objective of the Public Safety Committee is to generate awareness about public safety, and take initiatives to promote and ensure public safety. This will include not only areas of specific interest to the members such as industrial safety, industrial accident procedures, police station jurisdictions and procedure for filing FIRs, etc but also of areas of general public interest such as road safety, safety precautions and procedures in public places. The Committee was constituted under the Chairmanship of Shri Ashokbhai Patel. Shri K T Patel, Hon. Secretary is the GCCI office-bearer in charge.
