A nazim in Thatta has gone to court with the complaint that the tenders issued for repairs at government schools were made on a political basis.
A former union council nazim, Syed Manzoor Ali Shah, said the tenders pertained to the renovation of more than 200 government primary and middle schools for boys and girls in Thatta district. "The tenders have been awarded without physical inspection or evaluation of the 251 government primary, middle and high schools," the petitioner's lawyer, Masood Ghani alleged. The provincial law officer, Miran Muhammad Shah, was, however, not aware of how many schools had been renovated and whether the funds were disbursed or not. The bench directed the law officer to place on record such information within three weeks.
