Qureshi, November 13, 2026):<\/strong> Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader and former Member of the National Assembly Raja Javed Ikhlas has alleged that corruption is rampant in Gujar Khan, claiming that the Municipal Committee is operating without effective checks and balances and that government funds are being used in violation of established rules and regulations.<\/h4>\n<h4>He expressed these views while speaking at the residence of local businessman Masood Ahmed Bhatti. Malik Fayyaz Sandhu was also present on the occasion.<\/h4>\n<h4>Raja Javed Ikhlas said that the law does not permit Municipal Committee funds to be spent in rural Union Councils. However, he alleged that this restriction had been openly violated in Gujar Khan. He maintained that using municipal funds outside the committee&#8217;s jurisdiction was prohibited and constituted an offence, warning that those responsible could face imprisonment.<\/h4>\n<h4>Referring to allegations involving a commercial plaza owned by former Municipal Committee Chairman Shahid Saraf, Raja Javed Ikhlas said that construction work on the plaza had been stopped. He claimed that Shahid Saraf had himself publicly stated that a municipal official had demanded and received a bribe of Rs2 million from him.<\/h4>\n<h4>He argued that the allegation warranted serious attention and a thorough examination of the matter.<\/h4>\n<h4>Responding to a question, Raja Javed Ikhlas claimed that an inquiry conducted by the Chief Minister&#8217;s team had already established financial irregularities and misappropriation of funds.<\/h4>\n<h4>He said that if individuals allegedly involved in wrongdoing were still holding official positions despite the inquiry findings, the matter required the attention of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz.<\/h4>\n<h4>The allegations were made by Raja Javed Ikhlas during the meeting. No response from the Municipal Committee or the individuals concerned was included in the statement.<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u06af\u0648\u062c\u0631\u062e\u0627\u0646 (\u0646\u0645\u0627\u0626\u0646\u062f\u06c1 \u067e\u0648\u0679\u06be\u0648\u0627\u0631 \u0688\u0627\u0679 \u06a9\u0648\u0645, \u0627\u06a9\u0631\u0627\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u062d\u0642 \u0642\u0631\u06cc\u0634\u06cc\u060c13\u0646\u0648\u0645\u0628\u06312026)\u2013\u0645\u0633\u0644\u0645 \u0644\u06cc\u06af \u0646 \u06a9\u06d2 \u0631\u06c1\u0646\u0645\u0627 \u0633\u0627\u0628\u0642 \u0631\u06a9\u0646 \u0642\u0648\u0645\u06cc \u0627\u0633\u0645\u0628\u0644\u06cc \u0631\u0627\u062c\u06c1 \u062c\u0627\u0648\u06cc\u062f \u0627\u062e\u0644\u0627\u0635 \u0646\u06d2 \u06a9\u06c1\u0627 \u06a9\u06c1 \u06af\u0648\u062c\u0631\u062e\u0627\u0646 \u0645\u06cc\u06ba \u06a9\u0631\u067e\u0634\u0646 \u067e\u0648\u0631\u06d2 \u0639\u0631\u0648\u062c \u067e\u0631 \u06c1\u06d2 \u0628\u0644\u062f\u06cc\u06c1 \u06af\u0648\u062c\u0631\u062e\u0627\u06ba \u0634\u062a\u0631 \u0628\u06d2 \u0645\u06c1\u0627\u0631 \u06c1\u06d2 \u0633\u0631\u06a9\u0627\u0631\u06cc \u0641\u0646\u0688\u0632 \u06a9\u06d2 \u0627\u0633\u062a\u0639\u0645\u0627\u0644 \u0645\u06cc\u06ba \u0642\u0648\u0627\u0639\u062f \u06a9\u06cc \u062f\u06be\u062c\u06cc\u0627\u06ba \u0628\u06a9\u06be\u06cc\u0631 \u062f\u06cc \u06af\u0626\u06cc\u06ba \u0627\u0646 \u062e\u06cc\u0627\u0644\u0627\u062a \u06a9\u0627 \u0627\u0638\u06c1\u0627\u0631 \u0627\u0646\u06c1\u0648\u06ba \u0646\u06d2 \u0645\u0642\u0627\u0645\u06cc \u06a9\u0627\u0631\u0648\u0628\u0627\u0631\u06cc \u0645\u0633\u0639\u0648\u062f &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":66046,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3134,24,21,47,933],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-66045","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-13-november-2026","category-dailynews","category-gujarkhan","category-headline","category-pothwarallnews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66045","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\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=66045"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66045\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":66047,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66045\/revisions\/66047"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/66046"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=66045"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=66045"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=66045"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
