KARACHI:

President Dr Arif Alvi on Monday urged all government officials to ensure the dispensation of justice to the public and their service in its true spirit so that problems faced by citizens could be resolved in the shortest possible time.

Speaking at an awareness seminar titled "Roles, functions and performance of Federal Tax Ombudsman" held at Sindh Governor House Karachi, the president said that it is ]among the primary duties of an ombudsman that he should expedite the process of dispensation of justice to the aggrieved citizens and find a way out for resolving the issues affecting citizens in an individual capacity or as a larger group.

The president said the written words of law sometimes cannot cater to and address all given situations therefore superior judiciary has been empowered to interpret the provision of the constitution and law.

He said that legislation is a dynamic process that keeps on evolving to cater to new development, products, emerging business and trade processes, and development of the society, which sometimes slow down the dispensation of services to the public.
