Opp questions status of 2010 flood panel report
2014-09-10
[DAWN] LAHORE: Leader of Opposition in Punjab Assembly Mian Mahmoodur Rashid says had the Shahbaz government implemented recommendations of the judicial commission on 2010 floods, the people of the province would not have been hit by waters.

Talking to news hounds here on Monday, he said casualties and financial losses could have been averted or at least curtailed to the minimum had the PML-N's Punjab government implemented recommendations of the one-man judicial commission headed by Lahore High Court Justice Mansoor Ali Shah on the 2010 floods.

Mr Rashid asked Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif
...Pak dynastic politician, brother of PM Nawaz Sharif, chief minister of Punjab...
why Justice Shah's report was not made public, and why the persons held responsible for the flood havoc in the commission report got off scot-free as no cases were instituted against them.

He also asked to what extent recommendations of the commission had been implemented until now.

He sarcastically said that lion, election symbol of the PML-N, transformed into jackal when it came to implementation of recommendations of commissions' reports.

Mr Rashid, who is also a member of the Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf
...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
core committee, said the PTI expressed its sympathies with the flood-affected people on the losses they suffered due to "incompetence" of the rulers.
