The way our worthy MPA Bibi Fozia has projected the small issue of obtaining no objection certificate (NOC) which is often done by clerks. The female MPA failed to do anything constructive for the development of Chitral. But she is very good at defaming others especially females. The recent controversy of making a lady education officer as OSD is an eye-opener how sincere these elected and selected representatives are with the people of Chitral. Another MPA, who has snatched the provincial assembly seat after a long battle, has started awarding contracts to his favorite contractors without floating tenders. The Rs 200,000 tender given to the contractor without following the laid down rules shows how he follows rules.
