Government's clean cotton programme, setting up of textile city in Karachi and garment cites in Lahore, Faisalabad and Karachi besides amenable labour laws also contributed to the development of textile sector along with setting up a separate Minister of Textile to drive the sector forward in a focused manner.
Textile industry has consistently witnessed growth during the last six years as a result of favorable government polices.
