It is absolutely shocking to find that how some people are continuously after Dr. Rajan Mahtani and ZPC. Some days back when members of Zambia Defence Forces and Security Wings visited ZPC with an objective to complete their training program, the news was flashed by Zambia Reports as “Zambezi Portland Cement Under Armed Police Guard”.

As we all are aware of the fact that Zambia Defence Forces execute a variety of training programs, one of them also included a visit to a key contributing unit in Zambia and understand its contribution to the Zambian Economy. The troop included 22 Student Officers, 4 Directing Staffs and 2 Support Staffs. Attached below is a copy which will authenticate this aforesaid reason and expose the shameful argument of Zambia Reports.

After defaming and ridiculing Dr. Rajan Mahtani, the group of conspirators has now turned to the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory. They, along with their ‘well-funded’ news portal Zambia Reports are in a quest to demolish the reputation of ZPC by spreading rumors that the factory will soon face a major downfall in the days to come. The intent behind this news is to create a panic among Zambians which also includes 700 employees of the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory.

Recently, when the Court reversed the deportation of Ventriglias, the conspirators found an opportunity to relate the same to the ZPC and create an article which could easily break the confidence of Zambians on Dr. Rajan Mahtani. On learning about the performance report of ZPC in 2014, it was obvious that the conspirators were looking for clues whereby they can ventilate their jealousy and hatred for Dr. Rajan Mahtani. Therefore, when found an opportunity (though not directly related), they took it and created a fake story out of it.

A supporter of Dr. Rajan Mahtani said that he was expecting some kind of cheap attack by the conspirators very soon because ZPC has gained fame recently. However, it is not long before the long tail of conspiracies are finally out to an end by the Zambian Authorities and Dr. Mahtani.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani, perhaps the name says it all. A man who has not only revolutionized the medium-sized banking sector in Zambia, but has also reinforced a celebrated force in the heavy scale industry. Being the owner of Finance Bank Zambia (FBZ) and the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory (ZPC), Dr. Rajan Mahtani has ensured that both his units perform with exceptional brilliance in 2015. As per verified records, it has been confirmed that FBZ will now be listing itself with the Lusaka Stock Exchange with a view to raise US $ 250 millions through share trading.

Another news that has pleased Zambia is the success story of ZPC. As per the annual performance report, ZPC has produced an excess of 1, 00, 000 tonnes of cement for the year 2014. The additional was produced with a view to meet the requirements of the Ndola Housing Project. The steering force behind both these accomplishments was Dr. Rajan Mahtani.

Dr. Mahtani leads the Mahtani Group of Companies as an example. His hard work, dedication and commitment have motivated the whole of Zambia to work and aspire success. Sadly, his records have also instigated conspirators to target him. This is why he is always addressed as a controversial businessman by most of the funded news portals.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani, the owner of Finance Bank Zambia PLC., has confirmed that the listing process with the Lusaka Stock Exchange (LuSE) is moving ahead at a healthy pace. There is no reason whatsoever to worry about the listing process of FBZ because all obligations in the process have been duly met and very soon the shares of FBZ PLC. would be traded on the Lusaka Stock Exchange.

A rumor which was recently floated by Zambia Reports showed that the listing process of FBZ has been withdrawn from the LuSE and the reason behind such a decision was Dr. Mahtani. The article also convicted Dr. Mahtani of betraying the trust of Edgar Lungu, the President of Zambia.

The event has presented the malicious side of Zambia Reports who has been constantly striving with envy to defame Dr. Rajan Mahtani. There have also been numerous incidents when Zambia Reports have made fatal attempts to demolish the reputation of the Finance Bank Chairman. However, they have never been successful as Zambians are well aware of the attitude that this portal possess. It would be interesting to find what legal step is taken against Zambia Reports after this shameful event. As for the people of Zambia, they are being assured that FBZ will soon been seen on the Lusaka Stock Exchange.

Recently, when an article claimed that Dr. Rajan Mahtani had bribed the Malawian ex-President Joyce Banda, the people of Zambia and Malawi got angry and started to hunt for the truth behind this news. However, the clues were hidden in the fake article itself when it claimed that the bribe was offered in the form of a bio-thermal plant and a fuelling loan.

For any man, it was not very hard to understand that Dr. Rajan Mahtani is a man whose abides by the biblical principles and focuses upon developing Zambia. Nevertheless, had any form of bribe been offered to Joyce Banda, then it would have been in the form of personal benefits rather than offering benefits for the society. A bio thermal plant is of no use to an individual and hence, one can realize that this nothing more than a shameful attempt of the conspirators to defame Dr. Rajan Mahtani.

Another aspect of looking at this matter is the relevancy of the claim. Being a learned man, Dr. Mahtani is well aware of the legal framework which exists in Malawi. Had he been interested in bribing an official to regain access into Malawi then it would be the officials of the Reserve Bank of Malawi rather than Joyce Banda, because it is the Reserve Bank of a country that holds the right to grant operating permission to any bank.

To conclude, one can now regard that the controversy was nothing more than an intended defamation attempt against Dr. Mahtani.

Masaiti has become a hot-spot of development for Dr. Mahtani. After the much celebrated success of the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory, Dr. Rajan Mahtani has turned his focus towards Masaiti by making it the home for some of his biggest projects. As per confirmed reports, Masaiti is going to host a new ‘block-making facility’ which has the potential to produce 8000 concrete blocks a day.

The facility will soon start its production within a span of 30 days. An additional benefit which will arise out of this plan is that Masaiti will have greater opportunities of employment.
