Adviser to Sindh Chief Minister on Information & Archives, Law, and Anti-Corruption Establishment barrister Murtaza Wahab in a statement on Saturday said that the Federal Government should be aware of the fact that Karachi is not alone or orphan.
He said that commercialisation of residential plots have also been done in Islamabad too. Adviser said that the incumbent federal government has double standard when it comes to the rights of Karachiites. The adviser clarified that Pakistan People's Party has never supported to put the people out of their homes in the name of anti-encroachment drive. He said that it was only after the clear stand of the PPP that the MQM is now trying to take credit over the protection of the rights of Karachiites.
He said that it was the MQM which first took into illegal possession the state land to build homes and later shattered the same. Murtaza Wahab said that the PPP rebuilt Karachi from Keamari to Surjani town. He said that a conspiracy is being hatched by blocking the water of the port city. The adviser said that the votes of the PPP were given to the PTI illegitimately but where is the PTI in Karachi now, he asked.
