You should try reading english news papers specially Business Recorder, consume some time for purposeful chatting specially with english speaking people, read english novels on topics that may interest you, watch english movies with an attempt to understand the language used, participate in various online forums actively, and most importantly attend all the professional seminars and conferences whenever you get a chance.
One cannot alleviate the fears of speaking publicy unless he tries to remove such fears. To start with you can do it in empty room, then with some friends as audience, and then in public if you get chance to speak.
In general life if you see some inappropriate things or poor services or dishonesty eg in shopping malls, coaches, hotels, public places and offices, then try developing courage to speak loudly against it. Don't feel what people will feel about you. If you believe your are right then make a basis of your objections and try criticising publicly, loudly and without getting too personal.
To get rid of such fears has to take time and requires confidence, effort and quest.
You must watch TV talk shows (english programmes).
As another generalized step get CDs of political, army and other leaders, professionals, corporate officials and others (in english) and listen them carefully to observe and judge presentation style, words and sentences selected, gestures and methodology to convince the listners.
M.A. Jinnah, Z.A. Bhutto, and Gen. Yahya Khan used to speak very good, loud and authoritative, Hitler was a superb speaker, and some of english speeches of Altaf Hussain are good. In corporate world, if you get a chance to listen Asad Umar (CEO of Engro Chemicals) or Mujahid Eshai (FCA) or Abdullah Yousaf (FCA) it will be a very nice oppurtunity. It would be injustice if I don't mention nice public speaking ability of grand son of Gen. Ayub who was finance minister in Musharraf/Shaukat Azeez regime. Probably his name is Omer Gohar Ayub. Of course he is a very nice and fluent speaker.
So you should start working on all these areas along with reading good english books on communication and inter-personal skills etc.
I hope you will feel improvement.

Kamran.
