ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) has complained that Sindh is being deprived of its rightful share in the National Finance Commission (NFC) Award and development budget.
Chairman PPP Bilawal Bhutto Zardari participated in the Sindh chapter meeting through a video link on Monday and was briefed about the prevailing situation of the province, including the results of census, in which the population of the province was not accurately shown in the data that would also deprive Sindh with resources. The PPP chairman was told that the opening of Taunsa-Panjnad Link Canal has created the biggest water shortage in the past 60 years. “Sindh considers IRSA's injustice as an economic attack on the province,” PPP’s Sindh leadership told Bilawal.
Chairman Bilawal was also apprised of Sindh's right to employment, which is being targeted by an organised plan. He was informed that attempts are being made to plunder Sindh's resources and use money for the PTI's political campaign. The PPP Sindh vowed that the party would not accept economic assassination of the province. The meeting was chaired by Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah and attended by provincial ministers, MPAs, advisers and special assistants including Faryal Talpur, Syed Qaim Ali Shah and Nisar Khoro.
