HYDERABAD: Pakis­tan Peoples Party’s Sindh Information Secretary Ajiz Dhamra on Monday advised the party leadership to part ways with the Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) and quit the federal coalition.

Addressing a press conference at the residence of party colleague Waseem Rajput, Dhamra said that the country was faced with an energy crisis, adding that the gas loadshedding was affecting Sindh the most. This loadshedding was continuing to increase, he said.

Dhamra pointed out that PPP was not inimical towards anyone except for those who were enemies of Pakistan.

He said PPP government was urging federal government to convene a meeting of the Council of Common Interests (CCI) but the latter was not heeding its call.

He said the federal government also remained non-serious on the issue of climate change whereas PPP had a major and complete plan to mitigate its impacts.
