An interesting scenario was witnessed on visiting the official site of Abdalians' Association on Tuesday, 13-Jan-2009. The information published under the "Governing Bodies" and the Executive Committee does not portray the current status of the Associations' "Governing Body". According to the information published, the Governing "Bodies" include Syed Aqil Shah as the President of the Association. In actual fact, the current President of the Association is Syed Ashfaq Hussain, who was unanimously elected at the last Annual General Meeting held in January 2008. Similarly, The Vice Presidents of various chapters are being mentioned incorrectly. For example, Brig. Rashid, who is the Vice President Sind Chapter does not appear anywhere on the site. Instead, it is Mr. Tariq Ikram, who was an earlier office-bearer appears as the current Vice President. Surprisingly enough, the information is as current as Monday, 12th January, 2009. |
It is interesting to note that the information being published on the official web site of the Association is atleast four years old, if not more and date-stamped as 12-Jan-2009. The other piece of information published related to the Executive Committee. The members elected at the last AGM in January 2008 are nowhere to be seen. Instead, the current President, Syed Ashfaq Hussain is being shown as a member of the Executive Committee. The same is the case with most other news published under "Headlines".
