[]\"><strong>Gujar Khan (Pothwar.com, October 29, 2026 \u2014<\/strong>The issue surrounding the appointment of the Chief Officer of Gujar Khan Municipality has taken a new turn following a reported order by the Lahore High Court\u2019s Rawalpindi Bench directing that Qamar Warraich remain in the position, while the appointment orders of Akhtar Islam and Nabeel Riaz have reportedly been suspended.<\/h4>\n<h4>According to sources, the latest judicial development has added another dimension to the ongoing administrative uncertainty at the municipal body, where a series of transfer and appointment orders has raised questions about who is legally authorised to hold the office of Chief Officer.<\/h4>\n<h4>Reports indicate that Nabeel Riaz, who had been transferred from Kot Momin, Sargodha, to Gujar Khan, arrived at the municipal office on Saturday to assume his new responsibilities. However, despite waiting for several hours, he was reportedly unable to obtain the office keys. The municipal administrator also did not hand over charge to him, leaving the matter unresolved.<\/h4>\n<h4>Sources further claimed that attempts were made to resolve the issue through contacts at various levels, but no immediate solution could be reached.<\/h4>\n<h4>Nabeel Riaz reportedly remained in Gujar Khan on Sunday as well. On Monday morning, he allegedly attempted to take charge of the office by breaking its lock. The circumstances surrounding the reported incident and the official response to it were not immediately clear.<\/h4>\n<h4>Meanwhile, the reported court order directing Qamar Warraich to remain Chief Officer, along with the suspension of the appointment orders concerning Akhtar Islam and Nabeel Riaz, has brought the competing administrative decisions into sharper focus.<\/h4>\n<h4>The sequence of transfers, difficulties in handing over charge and subsequent court proceedings have created uncertainty regarding the municipal body&#8217;s administrative leadership. The situation has also drawn attention to the procedures followed in implementing transfer orders and ensuring compliance with judicial directions.<\/h4>\n<h4>Residents and members of the public have called for clarity regarding the circumstances behind the successive transfer orders and the reasons for the differing administrative decisions. They have urged the relevant authorities to explain the matter transparently so that citizens can understand the legal and administrative position.<\/h4>\n<h4>As the situation develops, clarification from the municipal administration and the relevant government authorities is expected to help establish the current status of the appointment and the implementation of the reported court order.<\/h4>\n<h4><em>Note: The court proceedings, suspension of appointment orders and reported incident involving the office lock are presented as reported by sources. Official confirmation and the precise terms of the court order should be obtained before publication.<\/em><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u06af\u0648\u062c\u0631 \u062e\u0627\u0646 (\u067e\u0648\u0679\u06be\u0648\u0627\u0631 \u0688\u0627\u0679 \u06a9\u0627\u0645\u060c 29 \u0627\u06a9\u062a\u0648\u0628\u0631 2026) \u2014\u0628\u0644\u062f\u06cc\u06c1 \u06af\u0648\u062c\u0631\u062e\u0627\u0646 \u0645\u06cc\u06ba \u0686\u06cc\u0641 \u0622\u0641\u06cc\u0633\u0631 \u06a9\u06cc \u062a\u0639\u06cc\u0646\u0627\u062a\u06cc \u06a9\u0627 \u0645\u0639\u0627\u0645\u0644\u06c1 \u0627\u06cc\u06a9 \u0628\u0627\u0631 \u067e\u06be\u0631 \u0627\u06c1\u0645 \u0645\u0648\u0691 \u0627\u062e\u062a\u06cc\u0627\u0631 \u06a9\u0631 \u06af\u06cc\u0627\u06d4 \u0630\u0631\u0627\u0626\u0639 \u06a9\u06d2 \u0645\u0637\u0627\u0628\u0642 \u0644\u0627\u06c1\u0648\u0631 \u06c1\u0627\u0626\u06cc\u06a9\u0648\u0631\u0679 \u0631\u0627\u0648\u0644\u067e\u0646\u0688\u06cc \u0628\u06cc\u0646\u0686 \u0646\u06d2 \u0642\u0645\u0631 \u0648\u0691\u0627\u0626\u0686 \u06a9\u0648 \u0686\u06cc\u0641 \u0622\u0641\u06cc\u0633\u0631 \u0628\u0644\u062f\u06cc\u06c1 \u06af\u0648\u062c\u0631\u062e\u0627\u0646 \u06a9\u06d2 \u0639\u06c1\u062f\u06d2 \u067e\u0631 \u0628\u0631\u0642\u0631\u0627\u0631 \u0631\u06a9\u06be\u0646\u06d2 \u06a9\u0627 \u062d\u06a9\u0645 \u062f\u06d2 \u062f\u06cc\u0627\u060c \u062c\u0628\u06a9\u06c1 \u0627\u062e\u062a\u0631 \u0627\u0633\u0644\u0627\u0645 \u0627\u0648\u0631 \u0646\u0628\u06cc\u0644 \u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0636 &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":65768,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3119,24,21,47,933],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-65767","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-29-october-2026","category-dailynews","category-gujarkhan","category-headline","category-pothwarallnews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65767","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/31"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=65767"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65767\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":65769,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65767\/revisions\/65769"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/65768"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=65767"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=65767"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=65767"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
