Sindh govt completely failed to provide basic needs: Sher Zaman

KARACHI: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Karachi President and Member Sindh Assembly Khurram Sher Zaman has said that the situation in Sindh province is getting worse by every passing day.

While addressing a press conference at the party secretariat Insaf House, he said every day a new problem arises in Sindh, while PPP leaders hold press conferences every other day for unnecessary criticism on the federal government.

On this occasion,  Senior Vice President Mahmood Maulvi, General Secretary Saeed Afridi, Karachi Spokesperson Jamal Siddiqui, Subhan Ali Sahil, Capt (retd) Rizwan Khan, Arsalan Faisal Mirza, Imran Siddiqui, Nawaz Mandokhel and others were presented.

Khurram Sherzaman further said that the most shameful thing for the Sindh government was that Prime Minister Imran Khan was forced to give the responsibility to the NDMA to clean the storm drains of Karachi. “This is not a new issue, we have been seeing this situation in Karachi for 12 years,” he added.

The PTI leader said, “We are very grateful to Prime Minister Imran Khan for prioritizing the solution of Karachi’s problems”. He added after the failure of the provincial government it was decided that NDMA was given the responsibility to provide relief to the people of Karachi from the incompetence of PPP rulers.

Khurram Sherzaman demanded that the details of the funds received by the local bodies and DMCs in the last four years be disclosed. “Where did that money end up? Why is the situation so bad in Karachi’s districts”?  he questioned.

He said PPP has failed to provide basic facilities like education, health, and clean drinking water to the people of Sindh, adding that Bilawal Zardari’s party has not been able to build a sewerage system in Sindh in 12 years.

“In our view, PPP has lost its right to rule. Their mission is only to harm and harm the people. One of their leaders, who used to be a meter reader has now become a billionaire and is blaming the federal government for all the shortcomings” he said.

The PTI leader alleged money that the PPP releases to clean the city’s drains go to Dubai, the United States and London. “The mercy showered on the city becomes a nuisance because of the Sindh government. We want the federal government to take over the system of Sindh”, he demanded.

He further said that PPP has no intention to complete the K4 project, “There is a big problem of water in Karachi and we request the Prime Minister to give the responsibility of this project to the army”.
