Opposition leader censures CM

Says Shah's allegedly offensive language is intolerable

KARACHI:

Sindh Assembly Opposition Leader Haleem Adil Sheikh, and senior PTI leader Firdous Shamim Naqvi, censured Murad Ali Shah for using foul language against the PTI leadership.

"The PPP leadership is acting like vultures in Sindh and is plucking at the national exchequer, national resources and the masses mercilessly," said Sheikh.  

Addressing a joint press conference at the Sindh Assembly Building, Sheikh, who is also PTI central vice president, slammed Sindh CM Murad Ali Shah for using indecent language against the federal government in a public gathering. He said Bilawal Zardari, Murad Ali Shah and their cronies were vultures who had been plucking at the people of Sindh for the 13 years.

Haleem termed CM's rhetoric as condemnable and said that intolerable language was being used against a great leader who was striving for the development of Pakistan and working day and night to transform the country into a welfare state.

Haleem noted that an apex committee had decided that no highway would be blocked and later a case was also registered against him. "PPP is doing the same thing unabated. In the previous week, they blocked National Highway in Hyderabad for more than five hours, causing a nuisance and hardships for thousands of citizens. The same act was repeated the other day at Dawood Chourangi in Karachi," he observed.

He said CM Shah was not capable of heading an apex committee as he failed to implement its decisions.
