CHAKWAL: Speakers of a seminar Saturday said the opposition parties would resist high-handedness of the Punjab government-backed candidates in the local bodies’ polls.
The seminar titled “How transparent local bodies election should be held” was arranged by society of sustainable development in the collaboration with the Chakwal Press Club on Saturday.

The speakers said transparent LG polls were impossible because officials of the Punjab government were made returning and assistant returning officers.
PTI’s Pir Shaukat Hussain stressed the need of adjustment with like-minded political parties to compete the PML-N candidates.
Raja Yasir Sarfraz expressed his different point of view ruling out alliance with any political party.
RS 0.5M CHEQUE FOR PRESS CLUB: District Coordination Officer (DCO) Mehmood Javed Bhatti Saturday handed over a Rs 5 lakh cheque to the administration of Chakwal Press Club.
Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif sanctioned the amount on the application of Press Club chairman Khawaja Babar Saleem Mehmood.
