Author: staff report/online

ISLAMABAD: Chief Justice (CJ) Anwar Zaheer Jamali has remarked that court orders got entangled in administrative loopholes in Sindh. “Computerisation of the record has been completed in Punjab and land record in Sindh has not been computerised despite a lapse of several years. Work could not be done despite allocation of hefty amount,” he gave these remarks during hearing of computerisation of Sindh revenue record case on Wednesday. Justice Muslim remarked that Rs four million were allocated by Sindh government but the work could not be done. “Record of not a single district has been computerised within five years. Nazar Muhammad Leghari, who was appointed as consultant for computerisation of land record, Member Revenue Board Zulfiqar Ali, Ejaz Ali Shah and chief secretary appeared in the court. Counsel for the Sindh government told the court that process of provision of the land record to the people has been started. Justice Amir Hani Muslim remarked, “How the record has been computerised when it has not been reconstructed.” Leghari told the court that the process of reconstruction will be completed within two months. The court while deciding to conduct next hearing of the case in the provincial capital has sought progress report from Sindh Revenue Department, besides adjourning the hearing of the case for two months.
