 ‘Mohajir Raabta Council’ responds to PPP Sindh info secy

Karachi

An example of patriotism should be set by allowing the affected families from the NWFP to settle in Punjab, Mohajir Raabta Council (Pakistan) Secretary Information Prof. Minhaj-ul-Arfin has said.

In a press release issued on Tuesday, Prof. Arfin expressed these views in response to a statement by Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Karachi Secretary Information Saeed Ghani.

Prof. Arfin said that references from the Constitution were being quoted for settling these displaced persons in Sindh.

He went on to say that it was “tragic” that the PPP “spoke against the interests of Sindh” when it was in power and “praised the Sindhi soil” when it was out of power.

He said that the PPP should “be reasonable” and “set an example of patriotism” by settling the displaced families in Punjab. He advised PPP leaders to “take the reservations of permanent inhabitants of Sindh seriously” and to work towards removing these “uncertainties.”
