Sindh Senior Minister SharjeelInamMemon today inaugurated Peoples Bus on Route 8 from Yusuf Goth to Tower under the Peoples Bus Service project in Karachi. The inaugural ceremony, held in Yusuf Goth, was attended by Pakistan Peoples Party MPA LiaquatAskani, former MNA QadirMandukhel, PPP leaders HabibJadoon, Faisal Jamot among others.
Addressing the ceremony, Memon said, “Today is a very important day as the route of the Peoples Bus Service from Yusuf Goth to Tower is starting. The promises made by PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, President Asif Ali Zardari, MsFaryalTalpur, Sindh Chief Minister, and the elected representatives to the people are being fulfilled.”He said that the leadership of the PPP was working day and night to provide maximum relief to the people. In the last four days, new buses had been deployed, and new routes started by the Sindh government. Millions of people will benefit from these new routes, says Memon.
The senior minister said that in this era of inflation and intense heat, the Sindh government was providing airconditioned buses at minimum fares, ensuring that people could easily reach their destinations. This initiative aims to make daily travel more comfortable. He said that when petrol prices increased and there was talk of rising bus fares, the Chief Minister stated that the Sindh government would not burden the people and that subsidies would be provided.
“He said: “The Sindh government has introduced a women-only pink bus service and an eco-friendly electric bus for the first time in Pakistan. The best hospitals in all of Pakistan are in Sindh.” Memon said that when people became homeless due to rains and floods, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari promised to provide housing for all flood victims. Currently, following the instructions and orders of Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, the Sindh government is constructing houses for 2.1 million families. Floods also occurred in Punjab, KP, and Balochistan, but such initiatives were not undertaken in those regions, he said. The senior Sindh minister said that a leader claimed to have collected five billion rupees for the flood victims.
He questioned: “I want to ask, where are those five billion rupees? Was that money used for social media propaganda, or was it used to create chaos in the country? In the 2018 elections, the public mandate of the entire nation was stolen, and an artificial politician was presented as the leader.
