Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon said that the press conference held by Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui and Mustafa Kamal clearly reflects their lack of understanding and ignorance of the constitution. It is unfortunate that these two leaders did not study the constitution and law seriously; otherwise, they would have refrained from making such irresponsible statements.
Reacting to the MQM leaders' press conference, Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon stated that both Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui and Mustafa Kamal are federal ministers, and such statements by federal ministers raise questions about whether they reflect the policy of the federal government.
He added that the federal government should clarify why its two federal ministers and coalition parties are consistently engaged in propaganda and conspiracies against the Sindh government.
Sindh Senior Minister and Provincial Minister for Information, Transport and Mass Transit, Sharjeel Inam Memon said that despite several challenges, continuing the Red Line BRT project was a difficult but a success. The situation had reached a stage where the project was being considered for suspension due to a sharp increase in costs. Inflation had risen, the economy was in recession, the dollar had appreciated, and cement prices had gone up. It was a point where deciding whether to continue or halt the project was extremely difficult.
He expressed these views while speaking to the media during a review of the Red Line BRT development work. Secretary Transport Asad Zamin, CEO TransKarachi Fawad Ghaffar Soomro, and other officials were also present on the occasion.
