KARACHI:
The Pak Sarzameen Party will form the Sindh government in the next elections and will form a federal government in 2023, claimed the party’s chairman Mustafa Kamal.
He was addressing a party gathering at Karachi’s Nishtar Park on the occasion of his party’s first foundation day.

“We will start a campaign from April 6 onwards for our demands that remain ignored,” Kamal said, adding that the government still has some time to take measures for resolution of the basic rights of the city’s residents.
He said that the metropolis should be given 1200 cusec of water, which is 1.5 of the total quota for Sindh from Islamabad. He also urged the provincial government to provide rights to the local bodies under Article 148 of the Constitution.
Addressing party workers, the PSP chairman commented that when he was forming the party he did not expect it to grow as much as it has, within a span of one year. “Today we have spread across the country,” claimed Kamal
Mentioning Pakistan Day, the PSP chairman said that the country was formed on the basis of the two-nation theory, but today it needed a one-nation theory to get rid of the problems it was facing.
“People in the city were placed against each other in the name of race, caste and sects by some manipulators for their personal gains,” the former mayor of Karachi said. “People started fighting, forgetting that it were hospitals, schools and better living standards that they needed,” said the PSP founder.
He said that more than 25 million children of the country do not have access to education and if the government wanted to eliminate terrorism, it is important that first these children must be sent to schools.
By-election result: MQM's mandate rejected, says Kamal
Hitting out at the MQM, Kamal said that he did not want to do politics on the Muhajir card and am vying to unite the whole nation. “In Karachi, Hyderabad and people from all over the country are supporting PSP,” claimed the former mayor.
Meanwhile, Muhajir Qaumi Movement – Haqiqi chairman Ifran Ahmed also joined PSP along with his supporters at Nishtar Park. Other PSP leaders, including Anis Kaimkhani, Raza Haroon, Iftikhar Randhawa and Ashfaq Mangi, also spoke at the event.
