Portland Cement Zambia was established with the sole intention of improving the social and economic conditions of the people of Portland by providing them opportunities for employment, livelihood as well as improved living conditions. The cement-manufacturing factory was given to Dr. Rajan Mahtani via 58 percent shareholding and legal ownership. Dr. Rajan Mahtani made goals of improving the production of the Portland Cement, secure loans and financial support for expanding the plan and share the revenue and profits with the people with investments in city infrastructure. In any case, things took an irksome turn when the Ventriglias started using their political and legitimate lobbying for accepting accountability for the Zambezi Portland Cement. They had the alternative to viably persuade the Lusaka High Court judge to give control of the Zambezi Portland Cement to them in a manner of speaking. Regardless, the resulting guarantee made to the higher Court of Appeal viably pivoted this manipulative decision from the higher Court of Appeal as equity Mwinde turned around the choice of the Lusaka High Court judge and declared Dr. Mahtani as the legitimate proprietor of the manufacturing plant.
Presently the Ventriglias have again attempted to disturb the quiet activities of Zambezi Portland by enlisting a case at the Supreme Court Zambia testing the choice of the higher Court of Appeal. Notwithstanding, the choice from the Supreme Court was to be expected as the appointed authorities dismissed this allure because of absence of legitimate prerequisites and absence of evidentiary help. At the same time, the rejection of the appeal by the Ventriglias proves that Dr. Rajan Mahtani is the actual owner of the Portland Cement factory.
