Chitral leg pulling show

Chitral leg pulling show is going on since October 2002, when our great leaders started blame game for nothing. In Bannu, Dir, Swat and Mardan, the election fueds are over while in Chitral people are suffering just because we had elections in 2002, 2005 and 2008. Latest example of the leg pulling show is the current row between the sitting MNA and Zilla Nazim over the provision of electricity to Chitral town. Fortunately we have 1.5 MW electricity that SHYDO generates in Reshun and does not use because lack of infra- structure. PESCO decided to buy 1.5 MW spare electricity from SHYDO and a deal was struck between the two organizations. But Zilla Nazim thought that the sitting MNA was spearheading the deal and the former came out with a proposal � either my goodself or nobody�. The deal was sabotaged and 1.5 MW spare electricity will go unutilized while the people of Chitral town will experience 10 hours load shedding per day for the next two years. Infact this � leg pull show in Chitral� which is main hurdle in the way of our progress. Singoor Irrigation Channel, Chitral Stadium, Chitral By-pass road and all other schemes were sabotaged in � leg pulling show�. I request both the rival parties to excuse the people of Chitral for being their unfortunate voters at one time or the other.
