Lahore High Court Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial on Wednesday sought a copy of the cheque given by the City District Government Lahore (CDGL) to Punjab University (PU) for a laptop distribution ceremony held at PU on March 23. The chief justice passed the order on a plea filed by Ch. Nazir Ahmad, challenging the use of Punjab University funds for the laptop distribution ceremony. Earlier, the CDGL’s counsel, submitting a report, told the court that the district government had paid a sum of Rs8.7 million to Punjab University for the laptop distribution ceremony. However, the court gave orders to submit a copy of the cheque given by the district government to Punjab University, till August 8.
