Advisor to chief minister Sindh on information, law and anticorruption Barrister Murtaza Wahab said Tuesday that PPP was not launching movement for sake of forming government and added that opposition parties had gathered on one point agenda as policies of the incumbent federal government had devastated the economy of country.
This he said while talking to media at Sindh Assembly premises. The advisor said that Chairman NAB should not run its affairs through press conferences as it was violation of the code of conduct and added that it was an attempt to make accountability process controversial.
“NAB chairman should inform nation about the investigation of BRT Peshawar and billion trees Tsunami case,” he added. He said that NAB was not working properly as conviction ratio of NAB was very low.
The advisor said that disastrous facts regarding the condition of country’s economy were emerging as according to report of State Bank of Pakistan, the debt of country rose to Rs 35 trillion.
He said that PTI government had done nothing for the relief to common man in last 10 months rule, contrary to that our prime minister was pacifying nation not to get worried. He said that policies of captain had broken the back bone of masses and now he would destroy the cricket team of Pakistan as performance of our cricket team was also very poor now a days.
The nation is expecting that cricket will develop in the country as captain knows game very well, but the advisor added it seemed captain Imran Khan was not in favor that another captain of Pakistan team should have honor of wining cricket world cup trophy.
He said that Railways was facing deficit of Rs 28 billion, but Sheikh Rasheed was busy in making tall claims adding that it seemed Shaikh Rasheed wanted to be Information Minister. He said that one could easily guess from the performance of Shaikh Rasheed that he even did not fulfill the criteria of (DS Railways) Divisional Superintendent of Railways.
To a question, the advisor said that Railways Ministry had refused to run Karachi Circular Railway arguing that the federal government lacked the required resources. He said that the Sindh government had fully supported and made serious efforts for revival of KCR but unfortunately, Sheikh Rasheed in meeting held the other day showed his reluctance to revive KCR and added Sindh government would run KCR.
The provincial advisor said that Sindh government had sent a letter to Railway ministry for providing the required 102 train boogies. He said that Sindh government would modernize the KCR in pursuance of honorable courts directives. He said that the Sindh government was making efforts to revive KCR since 2016 and with the efforts of Sindh Chief Minister, KCR project was included in CPEC. He said that the federal government had promised to support and contribute to the revival of KCR.
To another question, he said that details of new police order would be shared with the honorable court adding that legislation was not the responsibility of government servant rather it was the Assembly which makes laws. He said that impression was being made that IG Police had authority of legislation which was incorrect.
