UC chairmen lack authority: JI

Saifuddin Advocate, the leader of the opposition in the city council, has called the PPP government a threat for Karachi and Karachiites, while highlighting that citizens have been the main victim of bad governance and corruption.

The JI leader expressed these views while talking to the media at his office, here on Friday.

He elaborated that the union council chairmen were unable to exercise their authorities even after one year and even the opposition leader was provided with an office after one year he joined the position.

He said that PTI and the JI have majority in the city council but the PPP -- the minority -- was enjoying powers and the majority was pushed to opposition benches.
