PESHAWAR, Aug 1: The NWFP Text Book Board Printers Association, Peshawar, has demanded of the provincial government to direct the Text Book Board authorities to register only local printers.

According to a press release, the association chief patron Khursheed Ali Akhunzada criticised the decision of the Punjab Text Book Board for refusing to entertain the registration application of a printer of the NWFP.

He also expressed concern over the meeting of the NWFP Governor with the members of the Punjab Printers Association and urged the governor not to register the Punjab’s printers in Frontier province.
