Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah on Sunday lambasted the PTI-led federal government, saying no one has any expectations from the government. “They [the PTI] have no experience but they have been brought to power,” he said while addressing a public gathering in Badin. “This is the first time that tax collection has gone down in the last three months of the previous year. Sindh got Rs 90 billion less than its share in federal transfers over the past six months,” the chief minister lamented.
He said Prime Minister Imran Khan used to say he would not beg after coming to power but now he had been visiting the entire world for the purpose. “We have no expectations from the incumbent government,” he asserted. Shah said Sindh’s areas like Tharparkar and Badin would now be developed. “They should realise now that their propaganda won’t work as victory belongs to people.”
