Members of the Affected Islamabad Alliance visited senior journalist Hassan Ayub at his residence to thank him for consistently raising the concerns of Islamabad owners and highlighting long-standing injustices. The delegation praised his principled and courageous reporting that kept the issue alive in public discourse.
Hassan Ayub used his vlogs and journalistic platform to inform the nation that the CDA chairman had briefed the Prime Minister with misleading facts while leaving the rightful owners of Islamabad deprived of their constitutional and legal entitlements. His impartial coverage helped bring the plight of Islamabad owners to the attention of decision makers.
Alongside Mr. Ayub, focal person for the Prime Minister Youth Programme Syed Zeeshan Ali Naqvi compiled ground-level facts and presented a detailed briefing to Dr Tauqeer Shah, who in turn conveyed the matter to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. The focused, fact-based briefings prompted the Prime Minister to take immediate notice of the situation affecting Islamabad owners.
As a result of Dr Tauqeer Shah’s transparent and diligent efforts, the Prime Minister ordered the relocation of the planned Jinnah Medical Complex and Daanish University projects from Sector H-16. The alliance described this decision as a historic and justice-oriented step for Islamabad owners who have long sought redress.
The Affected Islamabad Alliance expressed its gratitude to the Prime Minister, Dr Tauqeer Shah, Hassan Ayub and Syed Zeeshan Ali Naqvi for their roles in addressing the matter. The alliance reiterated its commitment to continue a peaceful, constitutional and legal struggle to protect the rights of Islamabad owners, and Hassan Ayub assured members that he will continue to raise their issues in higher forums.
