KARACHI: Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori is apparently mesmerised by the most lavish wedding event of the wealthiest man in India Mukesh Ambani’s son as he expressed wishes to see such events in Pakistan as well.

Governor Tessori said in a statement that the Ambani family’s lavish event was discussed everywhere across the globe and he wanted to see the same genre of occasions in Pakistan which would draw the attention of high-profile guests from all parts of the planet.

The extravagant event of Anant Ambani’s wedding became a global attraction which gathered the most powerful and wealthy individuals from around the world in India’s Gujarat state, including King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuk and wife Jetsun Pema of Bhutan, American popstar Rihanna, daughter of former US president Donald Trump, Ivanka Trump, Bill Gates, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai, Walt Disney CEO Bob Iger, and BlackRock Chairman and CEO Larry Fink.

He also praised Pakistani businesspersons for playing an important role for the masses’ relief during the coronavirus pandemic and disastrous floods. The governor said that he did not complain about the lack of sufficient powers to serve the masses nor he would pick any stance like that in future.

Tessori said that they distributed ration worth Rs1.5 billion among deserving families via the Governor’s House. Appreciating the high spirit of charity, he said that a philanthropist donated Rs1.5 billion for the distribution of essential goods among poor people.

However, Tessori said that he would not reveal the name of the donor as the individual requested him to maintain secrecy.

The governor further said that he would write a letter to the Centre to include the Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FPCCI) president in the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC).
