HYDERABAD, April 1: The Pakistan Peoples Party, Hyderabad chapter, has taken strong exception to the failure of the Election Commission, Hyderabad, to supply the map of new delimitations despite repeated requests.

In a joint statement issued here on Monday, PPP leaders, Pervez Ansari, Zahid Ali Bhurgari, Zahiruddin Ghumman and Tahseen Shaikh, said that they had approached the election commission on many occasions to get the map of new delimitation but it was not being provided to them.

They feared that this was being done intentionally to prevent the people from filing objections the last date of which was only a week away.

The PPP leaders demanded that the delimitation maps should be supplied without any further loss of time to enable the people to file their objections.

LAND: The caretaker of Dargah Jeewan Shah, Faqir Gul Mohammad, and a villager of Ghanghra Mori, Haji Raza Mohammad, have refuted the allegations that they had occupied the graveyard of the shrine and were raising construction there.

Speaking at a news conference at the Hyderabad press club here on Monday, they said that the recent protest demonstrations outside the press club and press conference by Shah Mohammad Talpur and others were part of a conspiracy against them with a view to encroaching upon 3.17 acres of land attached to the shrine.

Gul Mohammad also refuted the allegations that he was involved in the sale of narcotics.

He said a court had given the judgment that 3.17 acres of land were in the area of the graveyard and the property of the shrine.

He said that some people had illegally occupied the shrine land and were selling out the plots.
