The DCO Chiniot should undertake clean-up operation under his supervision, regardless of creed, denomination or political affiliation.

Chenab Nagar (Correspondent): Illegal occupants from out of town have constructed encroachments on major roads here like the Aqsa Road, Railway Road, College Road and Rajeki Road, and thereby the residents suffer greatly.

Cart pushers, who come from outside locations, come here to sell their commodities and occupy road spaces; they are supported by politically influential persons.

A number of local social, welfare and religious leaders and lawyers, professors and journalists have written applications to the officials of Tehsil Municipal Administration reminding them of honest performance of their duties, but the corrupt and dishonest staff take no notice.


Therefore, victims who are injured in accidents caused by these encroachments, had to complain to Mian Shahbaz Sharif the Chief Minister, Mr Tahir Hussain the Divisional Commissioner and Dr Irshad Ahmad, the DCO Chiniot that the above mentioned roads and the Rahmat Bazar Mandi should be cleared of illegal encroachments.

It is a human right issue of the suffering residents.

They have also requested action against the corrupt officials of the TMA who facilitate these encroachments.

The applicants, namely Mr Ghulam Sarwar Saif, advocate, Mr Aamar Munir advocate, Mr. Aamar Munir Advocate, Mr Mujeeb Khan advocate, Mr. Waqas Khan advocate, Prof. Waqar Hussain, Prof Rayan Ahmad Syed, Mr Zahid Mahmud Mirza the chairman of the Traders Association have all demanded the vacation of encroachments on permanent basis.

To achieve this it is essential to appoint a regular Chief Officer and an Overseer.

The citizens have demanded that the DCO Chiniot should undertake a clean-up operation under his personal charge, sans consideration of creed, denomination and political affiliation.
