Names of Raza Haroon and Syed Sardar Ahmed have surfaced for the Sindh home minister portfolio, sources said.
Earlier, Sindh Home Minister Manzoor Wassan was removed from his office for ‘reasons other than political’. He, however, refused to accept another portfolio in the provincial cabinet.
Presently, Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah holds the post until a suitable replacement can be found.

Great news! A person like Syed Mustafa Kamal can fix the law and order situation in Karachi in less than 90 days. Nobody else is capable of doing this.
So, Now they are being legalized.
@Sherry: you mean, MQM destroyed the situation of karachi, and now everything will be fine when they get the power.
PPP can do anything to remain in power, i wonder when Faisal Sabzwari is going to be CM before next elections...
Home Minister's portfoilo should be given to a netural person.
Not necessarily, the pneutral person should be called as Home Minister, he can be made Home Advisor.
Thank GOD...I Hope Karachi situation will be fine now.
Its a time for MQM to merge into PPP. There seems to be too much harmony between those parties.
@Olx: Thank yOu sir :D
Well its great if the power is going to be handed over to MQM guys, their era with musharraf as president was the most peaceful and joyful. personally i prefer MQM on the position of home ministry cause they guys can lookafter the Karachi law and order. no doubt
Yes, MQM deserves it to bring peace back in Karachi.
MQM-PPP natural allies for Sindh.
we need peace in Karachi who cares home ministry is with MQM, PPP or ANP.
People please stand up for a change, our country desperately need to get rid of corrupt leaders. LOVE for Imran Khan please help us we are almost dying every day.
in school our class was very rowdy and the teachers were at a loss for a solution until the day when the class bully was appointed the class monitor. It worked like a charm. It might just work in this chaotic city of lights
A desperate man against all odds.Who can withstand the unholy alliance of murders and blackmail.
I hope in my lifetime Allah will give justice. I want to see everyone of these politicians be punished and whipped publicly. We need to get rid of all these parties now and make sure we vote in the next elections. PTI is the only hope for Pakistan.
Dr Zulfiqar Mirza? Where is he? What happened to the tall claims he made when he visited the UK recently where vast majority of British Pakistanis and Pakistani expats welcomed him for what appeared to be his principled stand against arch blackmailer Altaf. He has disappeared in thin air. He conned us. He will never regain his respectability here in the UK or for that matter in Sindh.
Where is DR Zulfiqar Mirza now. He was not a real lion after all
It doesn't bother a bit to Mr A-Z. In other words he doesn't give a toss to Sindh. By handing over this important ministry MQM will have an access to the sensitive intelligence and whatever little success to nab their hit men will be lost.
Don't forget MQM was holding the home ministry on the fateful day of 12th May 2007. Everyone witnessed how the assassins of MQM were provided protection by disarming police coming from other parts of Sindh.
Be prepared for turbulent days ahead thanks to very generous policy of !recociliation' pursued by Mr Asif Zardari.
so in the end Zulfiqar Mirza Lost, MQM win.
Great, MQM deserves Sindh home ministry for the peace and development of Pakistan.
@ Buy and Sell In Pakistan : I like your name.
So PPP is playing the cards very well. only time will tell what was the best decision.
@the Skunk: Yes they can the way they did in musharaff era, but mutahida should know that by engraving a seed it wont let the seed die but to grow a tree ( tree of target killing)
I think that the best solution is to give the administrative rights to those who are elected by people. For a long long time, the people elected by people of Karachi are denied the actual authority and power. This move is indeed seems to be a sensible one and it will lead the city towards peace and prosperity.
I hope that this should be a prolonged one and after elections, those who get the votes of people of Karachi should be given the rights and power to administrate the city.
Wow after wasting so many lives now you guys want to impress your collation crime partners. you will pay for killing and wasting every life.
take the minisrty the cm and retain govenor, right now ppp will give anytihng bargain
To keep Mr zaradari as president all is available & possible.....
Death for more Karachites. Democracy is the best revenge; on the population of Pakistan.
A very practical and sensible step. The Muttaheda will be able to control the law and order situation, Inshallah. Salams
Just when the election are near... PPP is deliberately giving fruitful positions to others.
What is strange. This give-and-take was expected.
To keep the presidency, PPP can handover a lot more than Sindh Home Ministry!! Ask for more guys!
