The governor stressed the need to ‘close doors of corruption’ related to land acquisition. “[Pakistan People’s Party leaders] Bilawal Bhutto and Asif Zardari are against any kind of corruption or land grabbing”, the letter noted.
“The committee should be constituted in a transparent manner”, he wrote, adding that the regularisation committee should be abolished and all stakeholders should be included in it.
