President Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Sindh, Nisar Khuhro has claimed that PTI, MQM and Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA) are conspiring to dismember Pakistan by talking against Sindh but the PPP will not allow anyone to usurp provincial autonomy and rollback the 18th amendment.
"Other provinces will also be divided if the talk of division of Sindh continues. The 18th amendment was unanimously passed by the Parliament and only after that it had become part of the Constitution. If anyone wants to revisit the 18thamendment, two-thirds majority in the Parliament will be required. There is no constitutional value of the bill presented in the National Assembly by Kishwer Zehra of MQM," Nisar Khuhro expressed these views while addressing a news conference on Thursday here at Sindh House.
He said that the PTI had not given any suggestion for the 18th amendment because it was not even in the Parliament due to boycotting election in 2008. He said that PPP wants implementation on the 18th amendment but the MQM and PTI are attacking the provincial autonomy and Imran Khan is playing a role of facilitator in this regard.
"The PTI government is trying to hide its failure so it is conspiring against the country. The people of Sindh will not tolerate any talk of division of Sindh. The PPP will neither allow anyone to rollback the 18th amendment nor will it surrender provincial autonomy," the PPP leader said. He said that Sindh is not getting its due share according to NFC award, while Sindh's 2015 NFC award has not been announced.
