BADIN, Aug 10: The leader of opposition in the Sindh Assembly, Nisar Ahmed Khuhro, has said that the government is contemplating to impose emergency in the country because it is too weak to control the prevailing situation.

He said that the People’s Party Parliamentarians would oppose emergency and would not allow the government to impose any draconian law.

He was speaking at a PPP workers’ gathering at Shahnawaz Chowk here on Monday before leaving for Tando Bago.He said that the PPP was a popular party that had helped democratic process to take roots in the country therefore there was no question of it indulging into politics against principles. He said that the PPP never believed in adulterated and tailored democracy.

He said that Sindh's resources had been snatched and rights usurped by the government during its eight-year rule. The rich people were becoming richer and the poor poorer due to the policies of the undemocratic government, he said.

He said that the PPP wanted to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor and it would bring a revolution under the dynamic leadership of Benazir Bhutto. She would come soon and would be the prime minister of poor people of Pakistan, Mr Khuhro said.

He condemned what he called vindictive policies of the government and alleged that the government was exerting pressure on the PPP to get favourite results in elections.

He said that the Sindh chief minister had destroyed the province and warned that he would have to repay for every excess he had committed.

Speaking on the occasion, MNA Fehmida Mirza said that “the deal” was the one of the plots of a media trial and added that PPP had stricken a deal with the people of the country.

25 workers injured: Twenty-five PPP activists were injured when a pick-up carrying them from Dando and Talhar to join the PPP caravan overturned in the Shaikh Unnar area near Badin after its tie-rod broke.
