HUNZA, January, 12: The Chief Minister of Gilgit-Baltistan yesterday visited the landslide devastated Attabad village in Hunza and the camps established for the displaced persons in Altit.

It is very Shamfull that the CM of Gilgit Baltistan have visited the the area after completing his personal and party tour…heshould have visited the day when the disaster happend in the area and many people died and lost their property…..it shows his mentality, intreste and willing to work for the area.
We strongly condemn his visit after 10 days of the disaster…shame on you CM Mehdi
I strongly agree with the comment at No1 by Mr. Mahmood Ali. However, better late than never, the CM should now earnestly make efforts to resettle the affectees some where else away from the disaster affected area. Provision of tents and other make shift arrangements are temporary relief measures. Time has come for permanent to the problems of calamity affected people.The Government of G-B should resettle these at alternative location as the area is not safe for human habitation.
It,s great matter of Shame that the CM -Gilgit Baltistan have visited the the area after completing his personal tour…it should happen the same day of the disaster!…..it shows his mentle calibre, intreste and willing to work for GB on unbiased grounds.
We strongly condemn his visit after 10 days of the disaster…shame on you CM Mehdi
Was there no any person to welcome him with rotten eggs and tomato, Mr. Speaker instead of remaindering him his attitude is thanking him for “Quick response”, what a jok to the perople of Hunza.
Shame Shame Shame on CM
Agreed with the comments 1,2 and 3. Countdown should start for the announcements made in CM’s visit. I would request PT to have follow-up posts on the same on a regular basis to make it happen.

Kam az kam apne haqooq ka to purzor andaz me MUTALIBA karo g, ye REQUEST kyon karte ho? tum ne CM ki dawat to nahi karni..
The steps made by the chief minister are appreciate able, but one must remind that if there was no any CM, there may no such announcemnts made by Shah saab………as 4 as speaker is concerned,he is doing a wonderful job…..carry on CM nd speaker….
I agreed with 1 2 3 4 5 & 6 but not 7. Reprehensible and idiotic CM of GB.
Mr CM was visiting down country. it seems that people of karachi and Lahore elected him. even he visited Mela in Lahore. the poor mentality of CM is unfortunate for the people of GIlgit Baltistan.
A sham full act that is now part of the history of negligence. Baltistan a valley of so wonderful , friends-of-humanity , and loving all people of G&B–Baltis must teach this neglectful jiyala CM son to uphold the golden traditions of love and integrations of Baltistan.
thanks God. the CM is free from nodero yatra…
shame on you.. and shame on your party.
