Anti-corruption drive: JI’s ‘train march’ reaches Hyderabad

HYDERABAD: Jamaat-e-Islami's (JI) 'train march' against corruption reached Hyderabad on Friday evening, after stops in Nawabshah and other districts of upper Sindh. "The movement against corruption will continue even if we have to go to Panama," said JI chief Senator Sirajul Haq, addressing supporters at Hyderabad Railway Station. The train march began a few days ago in Peshawar and will conclude in Karachi. "The right place for [medical] treatment of the corrupt people is Adiala and Mach prisons," said Haq, who also criticised the Sindh government for its alleged corruption. He held the Sindh government responsible for the deaths of children in Tharparkar.
