Sindh Minister for Environment, Ismail Rahu has said that led by Prime Minister Imran Khan, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI’s) federal government has made a dark history of injustice with Sindh.
In a statement issued here on Saturday, he said that the Sindh government has strongly protested against the federal government for neglecting federal development schemes.
Ismail Rahu said that the highest revenue earning province has been deprived of development schemes. The PTI government should explain why Sindh has been given less development schemes than Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), he added.
He further stated that Rs 24.33 billion was released to Punjab for development schemes. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was given Rs 13.18 billion for development works, but compared to other provinces of Sindh, the lowest amount of Rs 5.70 billion has been released.
The provincial minister said that the selected government has deprived Sindh of gas, water, electricity, NFC as well as development schemes. He said that Niazi Sahib ruled the state of Madinah with justice and not with the murder of justice; PTI, GDA and MQM tell where are the development schemes of Sindh? Instead of giving the money of development schemes to the Sindh government, the selected people gave it to the federal institutions, he alleged.
Ismail Rahu urged that Imran government should distribute development funds in a fair manner. The federal government should distribute development funds fairly and give a fair share to Sindh like other provinces, he demanded.
