TOBA TEK SINGH: The building of a government primary school of Chak Azmat Shah in Kamalia tehsil has completely disappeared.

The school was merged into another school of Chak Ghulam Husain Warooana in 1990 by the Education Department due to the less number of students but its building was abandoned. Now there is no room or boundary wall. Only the pillar of one room still exits, which shows once there was a room here.

Retired school headmaster Muhammad Tariq says bricks and doors of the rooms had been stolen.

Kamalia Education Deputy District Officer Muhammad Anwar said his department could do nothing after the passage of so many years.

LIFE TERM: District and Sessions Court Judge Muhammad Yar Wallana handed down on Thursday life imprisonment and a Rs100,000 fine to a woman in the murder case of a baby.

According to the prosecution, Tahira Parveen was maid in the house of Javed Khan, of Chak Mumbar in Kamalia. Over some domestic issue, Javed Khan and his wife beat her and to take revenge, Tahira strangled their three-year-old daughter, Anusha, in 2015 when her parents were not at home.

DRAW: The Agriculture Department held on Thursday a lucky draw for 66 rotavator machines.

Up to 423 people had applied for the machines for which a Rs1.45 million subsidy had been provided by the department.

Other related accessories like disk ploughs, seed drill and sugarcane drill machines were also provided to them. Meanwhile, District Coordination Officer Amer Ijaz Akbar inspected bricks kilns and asked the owners to get the children of their workers admitted to government schools.
