THIS is with reference to a news ticker I saw on April 12 about the government making non-functional airports of Chitral and other cities operational.

I would be glad if the Hyderabad airport could also be made functional, as a vast number of people from Sindh will benefit from it.

If someone from Hyderabad wants to travel to Sukkur or Islamabad, he first has to reach Karachi airport. This wastes a lot of time and energy.

As a result, the public, businessmen and officials face great difficulty in reaching their destination in the shortest possible time.

They miss scheduled meetings.
