Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader and Sindh Local Government Minister Saeed Ghani has threatened to ban federal ministers who use foul language against the Sindh government and its people from entering the province. Addressing media persons on Friday, the PPP leader said the government has the authority to restrict any loud-mouthed minister from entering Sindh. “As the federal government has authority to place names of suspects on the exit control list (ECL), the provincial government also has powers to ban entry of a few ministers who are causing tension in the province,” he said. However, Ghani did not specify the names of the ministers he wanted to ban. “There are many ministers who use obscene language but one cannot take any names.”
