Conflict Resolution Killa Saifullah
In Killa Saifullah, attempts are made to resolve the conflicts at community level by involving nawabs, sardars or other influential people. Both the conflicting parties nominate a common arbitrator who call upon old wise men of the clan and sometimes the Syeds and also the victimised party. After listening to both sides, a decision is made which is usually accepted by all parties. If not, the aggrieved party can go to a court of law.
Religious leaders also have a considerable influence over the people which is evinced by the electoral lead taken by a religious party in 1997 general elections. These leaders not only play the role of elected representatives but also of mediators in case of a conflict.
