MITHI: Senior provincial minister and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Sindh President Nisar Ahmed Khuhro has said that PPP is ready to send corrupt and inept rulers of PML-N and their cronies back home. Talking to local journalists, the PPP leader said that after Nawaz Sharif, it was now the turn of Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif to be disqualified for his direct involvement in a number of murders, including the incident of Model Town in Lahore. He said that due to a mammoth public gathering in Islamabad, anti-PPP forces were perturbed, adding that no force could deter PPP from coming into power at the centre and in all provinces, after 2018general elections. He said that there was no future of PML-N and the Grand Democratic Alliance formed in Sindh against PPP. He claimed political orphans could not give a difficult time to PPP in any district of the province. Talking about various factions of MQM, Khuhro said that they were trying to befool Urdu-speaking people. He asked MQM to stop dreaming to divide Sindh on ethnic grounds. He said that the dream to bring an MQM supporting chief minister in Sindh was a pipe dream of Dr Farooq Sattar and his aides. He came hard on Khawaja Saad Rafique for his recent comments about the popularity of PPP and said he was living in fool’s paradise. Khuhro said that Imran Khan would get nothing from Sindh and should focus on Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. He said no government in the past had given this much attention to Thar as the PPP had done in the last four years to mitigate the suffering of people of Thar and to bring them onto the road of prosperity.
He said that hundreds of youth would get jobs in Thar Coal Field, which was a dream of their slain leader Benazir Bhutto. Earlier, Khuhro addressed party workers during a divisional convention in Mithi and asked them to be ready for sweeping Thar in next general elections. Aftab Ali Shah, Dr Mahesh Malani, Dr Khatu Mal Jewan, Dost Ali Rahimon, G Hyyder Samejo, Javed Nayab Leghari, Gianchand, Ponjo Mal Bhel, Ajiz Dhamrah, Faqer Sher Bilalani, Papu Kotak, Dr Manoj Malani and other party leaders also participated in workers convention.
