The Opposition Leader in Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh has said it was high time to tighten the noose around the neck of those corrupt people who are depriving the people of the tail-end areas of Sindh of their due share of irrigation water.
Sheikh, who is also the Central Vice President of PTI, here Saturday visited the head areas of the Phuleli Canal along with senior lawyers and PTI workers and spoke to the media.
He observed that it was a grave injustice with the people who had been deprived of the irrigation water despite the fact there was enough water even at Kotri barrage.
“When irrigation water is being stolen through 321 illegal direct outlets to irrigate the lands of Pakistan Peoples Party’s Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Asif Ali Zardari and their cronies and henchmen, the farmers in the tail-end areas of Badin, Thatta, Sujawal and other districts will never get their due share of water for the crop cultivation,” he added.—APP
