The allegedly leased tract in Malam Jabba, a tourist attraction in Swat district, belonged to the provincial forest department. Earlier it emerged that the provincial government was to lease a mere 17-acre patch, i.e. 5 acres for construction of a hotel and 12 acres for a chairlift project, for 15 years. However, the KP government instead allegedly leased 275 acres for a period of 33 years, violating the rules and regulations. The NAB chief directed the anti-graft body's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa director general (DG) to immediately obtain all documents, including the lease agreement, and kick off an inquiry into the matter. Following orders by the chairman, the NAB has kicked off its investigations into the illegal lease. On the other hand, the Tourism Corporation of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) has denied the lease of 275 acres of land in Swat. It claimed that it leased only 12 acres of land, adding that 257 acres of land would continue to be owned by the provincial forest department. According to some reports, the vast tract was allegedly leased despite objections by the KP Ehtesab Commission and CM's inspection team. -

Inhale, garner courage and fight your fashion fears! And because John Abraham's saying it, you better relent. He might not be the most recognised celebrity fashion faces of today, but he's always had a humble beginning and never tried too hard. He's loved his bikes, his malleable muscles even more, so let's for once, give it to him. But the point to ponder here, is that he's finally worn shoes! So, the power of women has glistened once again. © Viral Bhayani Channeling all-black from top to bottom (sans the muted shoes), his fashion sense here is quite safe and sound. But are there any misses? Of course. In fact. we wish he'd missed wearing them- that peek-a-boo white t-shirt and those unwanted crisp-white socks!
