HYDERABAD: Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan's (MQM-P) Deputy Convener Kunwar Naveed Jamil has reiterated the demand for creation of new administrative units in Sindh.
Addressing a press conference at Hyderabad Press Club on Monday, Jamil said the MQM-P did not want division of Sindh but only establishment of new administrative units in the province.
Accusing the PPP for fanning the flames of ethnic friction whenever it came to power, he said the continuous injustices of the PPP's government had instilled a sense of deprivation among Urdu speaking people as well as the people of other ethnicities living in Sindh.
He said the PPP's government sold the provincial government's thousands of jobs against which the MQM-P would file a complaint with National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to conduct an inquiry.
"The PPP government has recently appointed people on around 5,000 vacancies but no one from Hyderabad and Karachi have been given the jobs," he alleged.
Responding to a question about MQM-P's alliance with the PPP during 2008-13 government, Jamil said PPP's Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari himself visited Nine Zero in Karachi and offered the coalition partnership.
"We made a big mistake by trusting Zardari. The PPP has no interest in Sindh or its people," he said.
MQM-P Rabita Committee's Masood Mahmood, MPAs Rashid Khilji, Nadeem Siddiqui, Nasir Qureshi and other local leaders accompanied him.
