Karachi—After the anti-polio drive, Shah Faisal
Town has decided to carry out a post-anti polio
drive as part of efforts to make Pakistan polio-free.“We
can eradicate the disease by making post-polio
drive a success at UC level through elected

organizations”.This was stated by Acting Nazim

THE martyrdom of Benazir Bhutto on the eve of
the general elections in Pakistan was foundation
stone of present-day democracy. In National
Assembly as well as in all the four Provincial
Assemblies political parties have been
contributing a lot towards setting the trend of
future governance.
It is a fact that the present governments in the
Center and in the Provinces inherited all the
problems from the previous governments. More
over the people of Pakistan take it for granted
that they have actually inherited the present
governments and parties in power due to the
misdeeds of the previous regime. There is yet
another step in the process of establishing
supremacy of the Parliament. The great hope for
Pakistan particularly Sindh was Benazir Bhutto.
Her Party was and is a genuinely liberal party
in the country, the Pakistani People’s Party
(PPP), that could unify Pakistan’s secular
forces ahead of the January 8 elections and then
win a confidence of the masses to beat back
religious fundamentalists not just in mosques
but in the nation’s intelligence and armed
services.
