They carried placards and banners while chanting slogans against the Pakistan Peoples Party.
SUKKUR:
A protest was held by the workers of the Jeay Sindh Qaumi Mahaz and Maka clan members against the Sindh Peoples Local Government Ordinance near Lakhi Ghulam Shah on Sunday.
They carried placards and banners while chanting slogans against the Pakistan Peoples Party and ended the protest by staging a sit-in at Larkana Road. They burnt tyres and blocked off the road from Sukkur to Larkana causing a heavy traffic jam. The protest was led by Jabal Sindhi, Intizar Mako and Gogi Ram. The protesters said that the leaders of the PPP and the Muttahida Qaumi Movement were working against the interests of Sindh and that they should be held accountable for their actions. “The PPP claims that they are the sons of the soil, but their deeds have proved that they don’t love Sindh at all and are dividing the province to keep the MQM happy.”
They added that the Sindh chief minister and other ministers were playing into the hands of the MQM, even though they had a clear majority in the house. The protesters vowed that their struggle would continue until the government withdrew the ordinance.
