PROCESSION: A large number of people, under the banner of the Sindhi Adabi Sangat and Shehri Ittehad, took out a procession on Thursday, which started from Shah Latif Library and, after marching through different roads of Pakka Chang, ended in Faiz Ganj.
Speaking on the occasion, Ghulam Murtaza, Mehmood Khan Shar and others said that a dispute between two groups of Chang and Mashori communities had badly affected every walk of life, including trade, in the towns of Faiz Ganj taluka.
They said that about 20 girls’ and boys’ primary schools in the taluka were lying closed as most of the teachers belonged to the two communities and other teachers faced problems due to harassment created by the dispute.
