Mr. Miran Bakhsh Shar Advocate for petitioners

 

                                    ...............

 

                        Through instant petition, the petitioners who claim to be Journalists have made certain allegations regarding corruption in distribution of wheat bags (Bardana) in district Khairpur in respect of wheat crop season 2015-2016, however, from perusal of contents of Constitution Petition, it appears that no material whatsoever has been placed on record to substantiate such allegations, whereas some news clippings published in daily newspaper ‘SOBH’ and ‘IBRAT’ have been annexed to support such allegations.

 

                        This Court has recently dealt with the controversy relating to distribution of wheat bags (Bardana) to the land growers of various districts of Sukkur division in various Const. Petitions, wherein, notices were issued to the relevant Deputy Commissioners and District Food Controllers of various districts including district Khairpur, pursuant to which number of petitioners i.e land growers were supplied wheat bags as per policy and it was observed that the distribution of wheat bags in district Khairpur was  reportedly more appropriate and prompt as compared to other districts, which fact was also verified by the petitioners who were also present in Court along with their respective clients during the proceedings in the matter.

                        Accordingly, we are not inclined to examine such allegations, which are not duly supported by any material and to issue directions to initiate any fishing and roving inquiry on mere allegations of petitioners who are aggrieved persons in terms of Article 199 of constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan, 1973. Accordingly, we do not find any substance in the instant petition which is dismissed in limine. However, the petitioners will be at liberty to approach the relevant forum along with material and file such complaint, which may be decided by the appropriate authority in accordance with law.
