Pakistan Tehrek-e-Insaf Sindh President Haleem Adil Sheikh on Sunday expressed grave concerns over fatalities caused by prolonged power outages during heatwave.
He stated that Karachi residents are also suffering from a lack of drinking water. He warned of potential fatalities due to electric shocks and flooding in the city with the upcoming heavy rains predicted by the Pakistan Meteorological Department.
Sheikh mentioned that PTI had previously protested against K-Electric, but their demands were not met, and prolonged load shedding continues to plague the city, causing distress among residents. He warned that if load shedding is not immediately ended, PTI will launch a massive protest against K-Electric across all districts of Karachi.
Sheikh refuted claims of internal conflicts within PTI, calling them false narratives created by conspirators.
Sheikh concluded by condemning the attempt to sell 54,000 government jobs in Sindh, a scheme that the court recently annulled. He stressed PTI’s commitment to ensuring that jobs are awarded based on merit.
Additional General Secretary of PTI Sindh, Rizwan Niazi, announced that in response to the severe heat, PTI will plant 100,000 trees across the province.
