He advised the Sindhi nationalist leaders to avoid confrontation and to adopt the political norms while expressing their political opposition to the system.

“We are ready to talk to any party or group for Sindh's unity and prosperity,” he said.

The Sindh minister for fisheries and other local leaders of the PPP accompanied the minister.
