Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan announced full support to a call for strike by Sindhi nationalist parties and Pakistan Muslim League-Functional Chief Pir Pagaro against the dual local government system introduced in Sindh. In a statement issued on Thursday, Khan said that his party would never allow a move to divide Sindh and it believed that different systems for rural and urban Sindh was the first step in this regard.
“We will continue our support to the nationalist parties of Sindh until and unless the dual local body system is not repealed,” Khan said in his statement. Appreciating the efforts of Awami Tehreek, PML-F and other nationalist parties, Khan said that sacrifices made by the Sindhi people against the dual system would never go wasted.
He said that the poor people of Sindh were being victimised for voting in favour of Pakistan People’s Party. They had had to face the worst kinds of floods over the past three years and had not been rehabilitated since.
then why all the fuss about local body system?
