HYDERABAD, March 20: The Sindh National Front (SNF) has urged the upcoming PPP-led government to resolve the burning issues confronting Sindh ‘like Kalabagh dam and influx of outsiders.’

SNF Secretary-General Mohammad Ayoub Shar said at a news conference that the Sindhis had given Benazir’s party a blank cheque and put blind trust in the party. Therefore, if the party failed to deliver goods, people would naturally look towards their friends but perhaps it would be too late by then, he said, adding that, however, the SNF armed with a political ideology and revolutionary programme would not disappoint people.

He warned the future rulers that people would take things in their own hands if they did not pay attention to the burning issues confronting Sindh province.

He said that the country was in the grip of political and economic crisis and instability, while price hike, lawlessness and unemployment had crossed all limits and people’ lives had become miserable.

It was customary in Pakistan that every incoming government put blame on the outgoing governments for all the ills and then passed them on to the next government without doing anything to cure them, he said and urged media to keep reminding the political parties, which had always deceived people during elections, of their promises.

JSQM PROTEST: Activists of Jeay Sindh Qaumi Mahaz staged a demonstration outside the press club on Wednesday in protest against the murder of party leader Dilbar Mirani in Karachi.

The JSQM Vice-Chairman Akash Mallah said that Mirani was eliminated because he had been organising protests against the demolition of villages.
