Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) Vice President and the leader of opposition in Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh has said that Sindh is not a fiefdom of Murad and Zardari and they are answerable to 6 Crore people of Sindh.
Addressing a press conference here Wednesday at Sindh Assembly, flanked by PTI Karachi Division president KhuramSherzaman and parliamentary leader Bilal Ghaffar and other MPAs, he said that opposition and media have got a very important rule in highlighting the problems of people. He said the parties who made Charter of Democracy are themselves violating it. He said Sindh chief minister says he is not answerable to the Prime Minister. He said Murad is answerable to 6 Crore people of Sindh, because it is democracy and this is not a fiefdom or kingdom of Murad or Zardari.
Haleem said the rulers of Sindh will have to tell where Rs7880billion were spent in 12 years and Rs957billion in 10 years. He said nowhere courts normally annul laws passed by assembly, but they made three laws and the Supreme Court of Pakistan annulled them.
