Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah commemorated the significance of April 27th as a pivotal day in history, marking the commencement of parliamentary democracy with the inaugural session of the Sindh Legislative Assembly. Murad Shah reflected on the historic moment when, on April 27, 1937, the first Sindh Legislative Assembly convened at 11 am in the Assembly Hall of the Sindh Chief Court, located in Karachi (now the site of the Sindh High Court building). The assembly’s inception symbolized a monumental step towards democratic governance in Sindh, laying the foundation for representative governance and legislative processes in the province.
Chief Minister Shah emphasized the historical importance of this event, underscoring its role in shaping the democratic fabric of Sindh and reaffirming the province’s commitment to upholding democratic principles and values. As Sindh pays tribute to this historic milestone, Chief Minister Shah reiterated the province’s dedication to fostering democratic ideals and ensuring the prosperity and well-being of its people through transparent and accountable governance.
Shah stated that the establishment of the Sindh legislative assembly marked the beginning of parliamentary democracy in the region, which ultimately led to the creation of Pakistan. The Sindh assembly passed a resolution demanding the creation of Pakistan, making it a significant event in the country’s history.
The Pakistan Peoples Party, along with its leadership, has made numerous sacrifices to strengthen the democratic institutions and democracy in the country. On this day, April 27, when the Sindh Assembly came into being, the CM congratulated the Sindh assembly members, the people of Sindh, and the democratic institutions working throughout Sindh.
