The chairman, National Co-ordination Committee for District Public Safety Commissions, Hafiz Ahsaan Ahmed, has urged the government to immediately withdraw amendment to Police Order, 2002, by virtue of which elected members would also be nominated in these committees.
Addressing a press conference here on Monday, Ahsaan Ahmed along with provincial chairman of the Co-ordination Committee, Syed Alamadar Hussein Shah, and various others, claimed that all the members of District Public Safety Commissions working in 30 districts of Punjab strongly opposed the recent amendment to the Police Order, 2002.
This amendment would damage the credibility of the Public Safety Commissions, which were non-political bodies, they said, adding if President Musharraf gives his precious time to them, they could apprise him about their reservations on the amendment in question.
