Sindh Minister for Local Government Saeed Ghani on Sunday expressed his reservations over Prime Minister Imran Khan’s announcement on giving nationality to the children of Afghan and Bengali immigrants born in Pakistan.
The premier in his address at the Diamer Bhasha fundraising event at the Sindh Governor House announced to give citizenship to the children of Afghan and Bengali immigrants in order to provide them employment opportunities.
The Sindh minister said that the prime minister should open the doors of his Bani Gala residence for the Bengali immigrants if he has got concerns for them.
Ghani criticised the premier for not speaking against the idea of construction of Kalabagh Dam in his address at the event, adding that the premier’s plan of introducing a masterplan for the metropolis is a blatant violation of the 18th amendment.
He said that the premier’s concerns for the solid waste disposal are completely unfounded as Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Mian Saqib Nisar, in his recent visit to Karachi, expressed satisfaction over the provincial government’s performance.
The Sindh minister said that the PM Khan should rather worry about the status of cleanliness in Peshawar rather than Karachi.
