Ghinwa calls for provincial autonomy

Published October 28, 2006

LARKANA, Oct 27: The chairperson of Pakistan People’s Party (SB), Ghinwa Bhutto, has said that provincial autonomy and trickling down power to grass roots level are the essential ingredients of establishing ‘people’s rule’ in the country.

She was talking to different delegations and party workers who met her at the Al-Murtaza House here on Friday.

She held politicians responsible, who in the name of the ARD and the Charter of Democracy had provided space to the rule of military, bureaucracy and feudal in the country.

She urged her party activists to tell people about the party’s package of amendments put forth regarding the provincial autonomy.

She said that poor peasants, workers and workers would not enjoy the happiness of Eid but the five per cent population of usurpers and capitalists.

The poor though working day and night could not even purchase a pair of clothes for their offspring, she said. This is quite injustice and disparity that the world had created while in the eyes of God all are equal.

She asked people to stand up against this kind of inequality and that is only way out to fight against capitalists and the mafia that had infected the society.

Sindh PPP (SB) President Meenhan Khan Rind, Information Secretary Inayat Hussain, PPP (SB) women’s wing leader Seema Rafique, Sardar Taj Mohammed Domki, PPP (SB) divisional president, and others were present on the occasion.
