The district administration has taken action against the revenue officer on public complaints. The concerned staff of Cantt Registry Branch has also showed serious concerns on this issue.

Deputy Commissioner Anwarul Haq told The News that he has ordered investigation into the matter. He said strict action will be taken against those not caring for health of others.
