DERA GHAZI KHAN, Aug 10: Candidates of the Leghari group in Rajanpur have sent an application with supportive signatures of three MNAs to the chief election commission against the use of district administration by finance minister Hasnain Dreshak and his father, MNA Nasrullah Dreshak, in the electioneering.

Kamal Farid, a candidate for the slot of the Kot Mithan union nazim, Qazi Saif for Dajil UC and former district naib nazim Mirza Ubaid Mughal have sent an application to the CEC with the signatures of MNAs Jaffar Khan Leghari, Meena Leghari and Awais Leghari against the role of the district administration.

They alleged that the administration was playing in the hands of Hasnain Dreshak and Nasrullah Dreshak by extending support to the representatives of the Dreshak group in the electioneering.

They called it a technical rigging that NGOs had been deputed to conduct the local polls.
