Gerrymandering polls compromised nation’s suffrage: Palijo

HYDERABAD:

Gerrymandering polls compromised nation's suffrage, said Qomi Awami Tehreek (QAT) head Ayaz Latif Palijo on Sunday.

According to a statement, the QAT chief said that the Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA) has exposed the bogus election. He continued that the fake election has proved to be a fraud and an attack on democracy with 250 million people of Pakistan and Sindh.

The mafias who could not win in the elections, now buy the elections. On February 20, under the leadership of Pir Sahib Pagara, millions of people will reject the bogus election in the public meeting to be held in Moro.

He said that the People's Party has been in power for 15 years and if it wanted, it would have made Sindh the centre of industries, agriculture would have been brought out of the crisis and Sindh would have been made fertile, life would have flourished in Kachhu, Kohistan along with Thar, unemployment and misery would have been ended and our cities would have become IT cities, but menace of corruption has destroyed the institutions of Sindh. Zardari mafia does not want Sindh to develop, for which they have made the people of Sindh poor and jobless and made them a voting machine for money.
