KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah on Tuesday invited newspaper hawker Mohammad Habib and his son Anas Habib, who has secured first position in the intermediate commerce examination of the Karachi board, to honour the proud father and his son here at CM House.

The CM said that Mohammad Habib deserved more appreciation for helping and encouraging his son Anas through his studies with very limited resources.

Anas also deserved appreciation for realising the dreams of his father and sailing through the examination and making his and the family’s names, as well as that of his institution, shine.

Mr Shah assured Anas that he would support him in his higher education, and got his telephone number for further coordination.

The chief minister presented a memento to Mohammad Habib for his efforts in pursuing the education of his son. The CM also presented a book on the economy of Sindh to Anas. Adviser to the Chief Minister on Climate Change Murtaza Wahab was also present.
