The Abbottabad District Administration on Saturday prepared a proposal to make Galyat Bhagan the fifth tehsil of the district.
According to details, the proposed Galyat Bhagan tehsil comprising 25 village councils, 31 villages and 10 Union Councils will have its headquarters in Nathiagali.
UCs Nathiagali, Tajwal, Nagri Bala, Beeran Gali, Namli Maira, Bagnotar, Bagh, Khatwal, Sarbhanna and Phalkot were included in the new proposed Tehsil with 25 village councils. However, people from seven union councils have rejected the proposal of headquarters as Nathiagali and said that Harno is a suitable place and said that the masses would be united on the matter of headquarters.
They further said that district administration Abbottabad has ignored public opinion and point of view on new proposed Tehsil of Galyat Bhagan which is unfair
People of Galyat have started negotiations to call a meeting for the decision of new Tehsil headquarters at Harno. Tehsil Galyat was a long-awaited demand of the masses of the region, which was never agreed by the provincial government or district administration.
After a green signal from the provincial government district administration, Abbottabad has prepared a proposal for the new Tehsil of Galyat Bhagan and sent it to the provincial government for approval.
