The LG elections were held last year, for the first time in the country under a democratic government. The basic purpose of the LG is devolving political, administrative and financial powers to the elected representatives at local level.
However, the representatives were anxiously waiting for setting up offices at the union council, village, tehsil and district level for serving masses.
Village Council Nazim Sawal Dher-1, district Mardan, Jamsheed Khan Khattak said: “The federal government should issue directives to the provincial government for implementation of the LB Act 2013 in K-P for smooth public service delivery.”
The whole purpose of LB election will become null and void if the elected representatives remain powerless, he added.
