A total of 17 legislators belonging to Muttahida Majlis-i-Amal (MMA) have formed forward bloc in NWFP Assembly against the alleged unfair distribution of annual development funds and poor performance of the provincial government.
Announcement to this affect was made by MPA Khalid Waqar Chamkani while talking to media men here on Wednesday. He said MPA Maulana Ibrahim Qasmi was leading the forward bloc.
Khalid said the 17 MPAs belonging to MMA held a meeting on Tuesday and observed that they have been deprived of their due rights in development funds by the provincial government.

In the meeting, Khalid added, the participants took a review of the whole situation and decided to form a forward bloc. After the Tuesday meeting, he continued, the members of forward block met Speaker NWFP Assembly, Bakht Jehan Khan and apprised him of their viewpoint.
