Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) Saturday lambasted Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP)'s Sindh government for what it said grave injustices with the urban parts of the province and vowed to expedite the struggle for carving out a new province in Sindh if the excesses were not ceased.

At a press conference, top leadership of the party noted that urban areas of province have been passing through worst kind of economic disaster for the last 12 years particularly the metropolitan city of Karachi has been constant target of looting on various grounds.

"We now look towards state of Pakistan after institutions in the province have been ruined or have been held by the feudals', Dr Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui, convener MQM-P stated at the press conference.

Siddiqui said the Sindh Public Service Commission has been destroyed so much due to corruption and ethnicity that those passing out from it are not able to compete. Likewise, a new department in the name of Sindh Testing Services has been established for corruption and looting of resources of province.

Siddiqui said that doors of education and employment have been closed for the people of urban Sindh and said that MQM-P is not being allowed to lodge the protests against these injustices.

Referring to declaration of emergency in Punjab due to coronavirus threat, he said that it should also be imposed in Sindh and noted that along with it, emergency should also be declared against ethnicity, racism and corruption in the province.

He accused Sindh government of being racist and said that it has compelled us to take to roads along with appraising the courts and high forums about their misdeeds.

Aamir Khan, Senor Deputy Convener announced to speed up the struggle for a new province if the injustices were not ended.

He pointed out that provincial government started to encroach upon the resources of Sindh through unfair means since MQM-P's leader Khawja Azharul Hassan filed the petition against fake domiciles and development took place on it in the court.

Deputy convener Kanwar Naveed Jameel appealed to National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to investigate one hundred thousand jobs given to people of rural parts of Sindh by depriving the residents of urban parts from their due rights in these jobs.

Khawja Azharul Hassan hinted to stage sit-in in front of Chief Minister House and Sindh Public Service Commission as well as encircling the offices of deputy commissioners as a mark of protest against the injustices towards people of urban Sindh.
