THATTA, July 7: The adviser to the Sindh chief minister on home affairs, Aftab Ahmed Shaikh, has said vested interests will never succeed in their designs to destabalize the government.

He was commenting on the Quetta tragedy at a medical camp, organized by the Forum of General Medical Practitioners, Karachi chapter, in collaboration with the Khidmat-e-Khalq Foundation and the labour division of MQM, in Mirpur Bathoro town on Sunday.

He said desperate political rivals from the coalition partners of the government might had worked behind the curtain.

The adviser took exception to the growing pollution in Keenjhar lake, and advised MPA Heer Soho, who is chairperson of the Keenjhar affairs committee, to look into the matter.

The adviser visited a hunger strikers camp at Thatta where the family of late Dr Azeem Koondhar, who was killed by his rivals, was observing hunger strike for the arrest of culprits since last one week.
