Eradication of corruption from the country

PRESS RELEASES Date: 8-Mar-2017 Title: Eradication of corruption from the country is top priority of NAB: Chairman NAB
This press release has encouraged me to lodge this report.
1. Background:
2. On January 4th, 2010 in the Hunza River Valley of northern Pakistan, a massive landslide buried the village of Ghareyat (Upper Attaabad), destroying homes, and killing people in village Sarat (Salmanabad), and damming up the Hunza River. This Lake in Hunza has recently dominated Pakistan news channels. The lake is now over 300 feet deep and 22km long, submerging miles of highway, farms and homes in Ayeenabad, Nazimabad (Siskat), Gulmit. Ghulkin and Susani (Hussaini). This natural disaster has devastated the life of a total of 381.households.
3. There was massive sympathetic response from GOP, Foreign governments as well as political parties in Pakistan. In the same context Mr. Nawaz Sharif visited the affected populations and made a public announcement for Rs. 100 million towards relief and rehabilitation of the affected populations. The local relief organizations asked me to enquire progress of this announcement. Accordingly I rang up Mr. Rizwanullah Beg then posted in the capacity of Commissioner Disaster Relief Government of Punjab. He confirmed to me that in fact this sum was transferred by the government of Punjab to the disaster relief account towards utilization for relief and rehabilitation of the disaster affected populations.
4. I can positively testify that the money has so far not been utilized for this purpose.
5. Please investigate the fate of this 100 million and implement the contents of the press release.
Note: I intend sharing this mail publically to all concerned through an open letter.
