MNA warns to sue against Moulana Chitrali
By Zahiruddin
CHITRAL: MNA from Chitral Shahzada Mohyuddin has said that
he will file a defamation claim against the former MNA from Chitral
Moulana Abdul Akbar Chitrali for leveling false charges of
corruption against him. Addressing a telephonic press conference
from Islamabad here on Wednesday, he said that Moulana Chitrali
badly failed to prove a single charge of corruption against him
during his five years term in power. He supported the idea of
investigation against him through a Supreme Court judge as put
forward by Moulana Chitrali and said that he is not feared of
presenting himself for accountability as he was never involved in
any type of corruption. Mr. Mohyuddin said that he constructed a
hotel in Chitral city from his own resources as he ran a business
for long time. Conceding the allegation of changing party loyalty
in different governments, he said that he did so just for the sake
of his electorate to bring development funds for his constituency
which was too backward. He said that he never changed his party to
save himself from accountability. He said that his election as MNA
from the area testifies the fact that he is above corruption.

Last session of Zilla Council held
By Zahiruddin
CHITRAL: In the departing session of the zilla council
Chitral held here on Wednesday, the members asked the government to
carry out the existing system of local bodies as it proved a
panacea for the sufferings of the people as it ensured devolution
of power to the grass root level. Presided over by convener Sultan
Shah, the session discussed the pros and cons of the local bodies
system at length and termed it the best one ever introduced in the
country. They said that the district government provided the common
man with opportunities for the solution of their problems at their
doorsteps and the system had excluded the undue influence of
bureaucracy. They castigated the bureaucracy for hatching
conspiracy against the system leading to its failure and deprive
the people of the fruits of devolution of power plan. The members
warned the government of disastrous results if the system is done
away with altogether. They also enumerated the achievements of the
district government and claimed it to be unparalleled in the
history of the district in the field of development works and
administrative reforms. They were unanimous to censure the
provincial government of giving cold shoulder to the district
government and alleged that it left no stone unturned to create
problems for the district government. The members appreciated the
roles of different organizations for extending their cooperation to
the zilla council during the past four years and specially
mentioned the local press. The members said that the DCO did not
attend the session despite being invited.
