KARACHI, Dec 20: The Anti-Kalabagh dam and Greater Thal Canal Action Committee Karachi will stage a huge rally on Thursday to protest against government’s plan to construct these two “anti-Sindh projects”.

The joint rally to be taken out from Quaid’s mausoleum will terminate in front of Sindh High Court, where it will be addressed by the leaders of various parties.

This was announced on Tuesday by PPP leader Rashid Rabbani at a joint press conference which was also addressed by ANP leader Amin Khattak, STPP’s Ali Hasan Chandio, PML-N’s Nehal Hashmi and National Party’s Mubarak Baloch.
