Meanwhile, lawyer Munir Hussain Laghmani defended Shiraz Mahmoud Qureshi, representing the earthquake-affected population, before the court.

According to him, the Federal and Provincial Governments did not comply with the court orders on January 7, 2019 to complete the New Balakot City Housing Project within 30 months.

Mr. Laghmani said the court had directed the Earthquake Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Authority and other relevant authorities to act in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that IRA and other departments signed with representatives of 2005 disaster survivors to develop the new town of Balakot. It also ordered the release of one billion rupees for this purpose.

The attorney added that both the federal and provincial governments failed to act on court orders and thus, families displaced by the earthquake 16 years ago continued to live miserable lives.

Arrest: Police have arrested about 70 men wanted for murder, attempted murder and other crimes in the area.

District Police Officer Sajjad Khan told reporters here Thursday that the campaign against outlaws and kidnappers on the ground is underway and 71 accused of crimes have been arrested.

The Office for the Protection of Civilians said that police referred 122 applications to dispute settlement boards over the past two weeks, of which 92 were adjudicated.

Meanwhile, the Helping Hand Institute of Rehabilitation Sciences held an Iqbal Day seminar here on Thursday.

The speakers highlighted the poet Allama Muhammad Iqbal’s idea of ​​a separate homeland for the Muslims of the Indian subcontinent, and said that young people should be educated about it.
