KARACHI, Jan 20: The Muttahida Majlis-i-Amal condemned the Sindh government for its failure to maintain law and order and demanded its resignation. In a statement issued on Saturday, MMA legislators Nasurullah Shajeeh, Hameedullah Khan, and M. Younus Barai said though the Sindh government’s coalition partner, Muttahida Qaumi Movement, claimed that street crimes had been controlled, the federal interior minister had exposed the ground situation by stating that the largest number of human rights violations had been reported in Sindh.

They alleged that criminal and anti-social elements were operating in the province under the official patronage and the poor masses had been exposed to extortionists, robbers, murderers, due to which the human rights violations had increased manifolds.
