Sooran Singh was minorities representative but he constructed more than 10 mosques in Buner KPK. He is no more with us but his efforts for the party and people will always be remembered. Who will catch his killers? Who will punish them? When due course of justice will complete? Questions which are not questions anymore. Ahmad Jawad
