KARACHI: Sindh Information Minister Shazia Marri on Thursday said that hundreds of thousands people will participate in a PPP public meeting at Kamoon Shaheed, at Sindh-Punjab border, scheduled for 12th of this month.

"This meeting (jalsa) will be a strong warning for those elements who have launched a campaign to harm the democracy,” she said in a press conference at Sindh Secretariat.

She said that arrangements for this programme were almost final.

Shazia Marri said that Kamoon Shaheed is the place where Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto once held a sit-in to protest against construction of Kalabagh dam.

She said that Pakistan People's Party does not believe in ruling the country but has devoted itself for democracy, upholding the supremacy of the constitution and the Parliament, safeguarding the rights of the people and the rule of law in the country.

The Sindh Information Minister described Nawaz Sharif's campaign as damaging for the democratic and parliamentary system in the country.

She alleged that Nawaz Sharif had always tried to come into power from back doors and with the support of un-democratic forces. Once again he has started various tactics to derail democracy which the country now has, after a long struggle and sacrifices.

She criticised Nawaz Sharif and Shahbaz Sharif, and other central leaders of PML-N for their negative statements and comments for the elected PPP-led Government which enjoyed a heavy mandate from all over the country.

Shazia Marri also criticised Mumtaz Bhutto for his shift in politics, from Sindhi nationalist to politics of federation.

“He has betrayed the people of Sindh for whom he had given nationalist slogans for at least the last three decades,” she remarked.

She referred to his (Mumtaz) different statements in the past, where on record he had been very critical of Nawaz Sharif and his party.
