Sukkur
The Sindh High Court (SHC) on Wednesday ordered construction of a new bridge over the Indus River between Sukkur and Rohri. The Pakistan Peoples Party leader Khursheed Shah had filed a petition at Sukkur circuit bench of the high court, seeking construction of a new bridge over Indus as Sukkur’s iconic Lansdowne Bridge has been in a shambles. Shah’s counsel Mehfooz Awan in his arguments before the bench highlighted the necessity of building a new bridge over the river to connect the cities of Sukkur and Rohri on the left and right banks of Indus.—TLTP
