The families evicted from Sindh Assembly’s servant quarters which were razed to make way for construction of a parking lot for the lawmakers spent another night in the open on Tuesday.
Reportedly, the affected people have pitched tents in front of the razed quarters while women are cooking meals by making fire from wood in the open.
No other accommodation or compensation has been provided to them by the Sindh government whereas no prior notice was issued regarding eviction.
The affected people, including women and children, said that the Sindh Assembly has snatched everything from them, leaving them homeless for the purpose of making a parking lot. They urged the federation to hear their pleas.
Meanwhile, Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) leader Khawaja Izharul Hasan, while showing solidarity with the affectees, said that no one would be left helpless in the metropolis. He said that no government representative had come to the rescue of these homeless people.
