KARACHI:
The Sindh government has decided to summon the assembly session in the first week of November. The session is likely to be called on November 4, announced the parliamentary affairs minister, Dr Sikandar Mandhro, on Saturday. He added that a bill pertaining to the Sindh Accountability Commission is expected to be laid in the session for discussion. "We have started consultation with various stakeholders and can pass the accountability law in the upcoming session," Mandhro said. It is yet to be ascertained whether or not Muttahida Qaumi Movement members, who had tendered their resignations from the assembly, will rejoin the session. Speaker Agha Siraj Durrani and information minister Nisar Ahmed Khuhro said that MQM leaders have yet to contact them about withdrawing their resignations and to join the upcoming session.
