I have never in my life seen a more humble and well spoken man. I have always felt that politicians were rats. But this man changed my opinion. He is probably the only honest man in the country in the business at the moment. And I condemn what PML-Q has done to him. Live Long Mr.Bux!
More respect for Maher Sb. after joined PML-F,Pir Saheb Pagara has stood for the people of Sindh, and respectble maher sb also said that he had quit PML-Q because of differences over the Sindh Peoples Local Government Ordinance (SPLGO). we appreciate Maher sb & his sons nd others..
This man has only ever considered the benefit of his people before his personal gains. Anyone saying otherwise is only talking nonsense. The people of shikarpur have the utmost love and respect for him, as proof one might visit the interior district. I have seen him work and although i went in as a sceptic, i came out with with a whole different point of view. If there really are more people like, my faith in this counry would be restored.
