By
Dr. Ali Akbar Dhakan
All
credit and appreciation go to the District Nazim Mr. Ghulam Rasool Aqib khan
Jatoi and the DCO Naushahro Feroze Mr. Zulfiqar Ali Shah who have shown
their heartfelt interest and inclination to preserve all the architectural
monuments in their district through Pakistan Heritage preservation and
promotion society (PHPPS) surveyed and researched by Mr. Momin Bullo a
learned researcher, journalist and Chief editor of a monthly magazine
’’Reporter’’ regularly published from Hyderabad. Mr. Momin Bullo is very
efficient and capable journalist of both Sindhi and English languages .He
holds the post of the Managing Director of the Pakistan Heritage Society and
also he has authored a voluminous book in Sindhi language on the Governors
of Sindh province from ’’Charles Napier to Mohammad Mian Soomro’’. Mr. Bullo
has many valuable ideas and visions to publish documents, on every aspect of
politics, economics, socio-development and cultural traditions of Sindh
through the ages. In my opinion, it will be great service for human beings
living in every district of Sindh if such documents are prepared and
compiled on very urgent basis through PHPPS so that historical documents
covering all aspects of Sindh province can be preserved and safeguarded for
the memory of our posterity assisting them to be more vigilant and careful,
knowledgeable an informative, learned and educated in all fields and aspects
of our Sindh province. Therefore, respected Nazims and DCOs of all districts
of Sindh are requested to follow the example of splendid idea of Nazim and
DCO Naushahro Feroze and start their efforts to get these documents in very
shortest possible time at their end. The necessary funds required for
