FALSE INFORMATION ON PRIME MINISTER’s CITIZEN PORTAL

USPA NEWS - FALSE INFORMATION ON CITIZEN PORTAL

To,
Honourable Prime Minister Imran Khan
Honourable President Arif Alvi
Honourable Chairman Senate - Sadiq Sanjrani
Honourable Ombudsman - Syed Tahir Shahbaz
Honourable Minister Fawad Chaudhry (Information and Broadcast)
Honourable Senator Faisal Javed Khan (Chairman Standing Committe)

Honourable Gentlemen ,

This is to inform that some government officers are providing false information at the Honourable Prime Minister’s Citizen Portal.

My Petition IS271020-87512235 was dropped by the Citizen Portal team because of the false information by some government officers claiming that my case is ‘subjudice’ where it is NOT in any court of law. I have sent reminders to the Portal and the government authorities but the opponent party are using their connections to delay the enforcement of law and the Petition.

The Petition was lodged against the state owned broadcaster for practicing abuse of power, causing psychological harassment, forcing of an addendum to unbind the original binding contract of multiple films to portray Pakistan in a positive way, holding the schedule of the first approved film for the last 20 months, non payments and discrimination.

This deceiving act on the Citizen Portal was practiced by the officer to freeze the inquiries against the opponent party’s malpractices; to delay my matter and to conceal the facts. There is an article in Dawn of 27th September, 2021 on this similar issue of dropping cases by Citizen Portal’s officers, several other cases have been dropped in the same false manner.

On my Petition 3788, the Senate’s Standing Committee for Information and Broadcast directed the opponent party on 8th July, 2021; to ensure that there will be no UNDUE delay or UNFAIRNESS with Yasir Akhtar and the matter must be resolved amicably.

Ignoring the Senate’s recommendation, the opponent party started practising delaying tactics and kept on insisting that they should spend Exchequer’s finances on expensive and lengthy procedures of arbitration and court remedies, to further waste the time of the honourable judges. Why should we go to the courts when the government authorities have all the powers to enforce law. The Petition tables and officers have been appointed to enforce the law.

Why should we have an arbitration to have an addendum which will unbind the actual binding contract? On my appeal for inquiries; The Senate has changed the number of my Petition to 3888. I am still waiting for fairness to prevail and justice will be served.

Why did the GM of the state owned broadcaster issued cheques of demeaning amounts against my outstanding payments at Wafaqi Mohtasib after four years? Whereas he has been paying his favourites and fulfilling their contracts regularly on time. Did the GM get his salary partially for those days too?

Why did the producer remove my name at the eleventh hour from the 14/09/20 LIVE program after booking my time for the day? These are all harassment acts to force the addendum on me and to make the actual binding contract null and void.

Another false and deceiving statement was submitted at the Wafaqi Mohtasib by the GM of the opponent party on the hearing day 20/09/21 was that they have never received the full copy of the unreleased first film of the series for censor department. I was shocked because the Controller Programs copied the full unreleased film on the system 20 months back.

When I showed the thread of messages from the ex-Controller Programs with instructions from censor department of the channel; the GM had no reply; the stated owned broadcasters used their good connections to delay the inquiries against them.

The Managing Director and Director Programs visit Karachi every now and then for posh shows and recordings but they have no time to appear in the hearings of Wafaqi Mohtasib to show transparency and accountability.

The opponent party is using their connections with the same government officers who are delaying enforcement of law on my Petitions at the Senate of Pakistan, Wafaqi Mohtasib, Ministry of Information and Broadcast and in London High Commission.

The Secretary Information and her DSO have committed in writing and in voice message that the channel will fulfil their commitment and freeze the above malpractices but I am still waiting for the day their commitments will be fulfilled.

The above mentioned malpractices are putting a bad impression on the Honourable Prime Minister’s efforts in our country, in the United Kingdom as well as internationally for a better Pakistan. It is against the ‘Code of Conduct’ of principles of Islam.

I hope; the Harvard returned Managing Director of the state owned broadcaster will realise the importance of the ‘Code of Conduct’ and Principles of Islam. The channel which starts it’s transmission from Quran e Pak must realise how much our Holy Book emphasizes the fulfilment of oral as well as written contracts. We are all depressed that New Zealand and England did not fulfil the contracts but are we fair with our commitments and contracts? I have nothing against any party or person, I am working for a transparent and better Pakistan. Let’s build it together! Looking forward to a prosperous Pakistan, Said : Yasir Akhtar A Citizen/Filmmaker/Singer/Actor/Producer of Pakistan
