KARACHI, Dec 27: The chief of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, Altaf Husain, said on Friday that the appointment of Dr Ishratul Ibad as the governor of Sindh is a victory of the middle class and 98 per cent of the deprived people.
Speaking to party workers at Nine-Zero, who had gathered to welcome Dr Ibad, Mr Husain thanked Tariq Aziz, Gen Ehsan and Gen Ehtesham for being helpful in removing the sense of deprivation among the urban people.
He asked the new governor to take the opposition along and solve the problems being faced by the people with the spirit of mutual accommodation.
Supporters of the Sindh Taraqqi Pasand Party staged a demonstration outside Karachi Press Club to protest against the appointment of Dr Ibad as Sindh governor. They also deplored the regime for appointing a person who, they alleged, was wanted in several cases, which had not been decided by courts.
