The first session of the Sindh Assembly is scheduled to be held today at 11am.

The Grand Democratic Alliance and the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl have announced protests outside the provincial assembly against alleged rigging in the Feb 8 elections.

“Our protests across Sindh, including Karachi, are against the theft of the public mandate,” GDA Information Secretary Sardar Abdul Rahim said in a statement.
