Sindh Assembly Opposition Leader Haleem Adil Sheikh lashed out at Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah for the alleged false statistics the latter presented in the fiscal budget.

Addressing a press conference at his office in the Sindh Assembly, the PTI leader claimed that the decision to register a peaceful protest during the session was a democratic right.

He added the aim was to expose the rulers of Sindh, who according to him, failed to provide any relief to the people of the province.
