KARACHI – PTI leader Samir Mir Shaikh expresses grave concerns over the Sindh government’s decision for a full lockdown
Samir Mir Shaikh says the Sindh government is interested in personal interest instead of public interest, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf rejects the Sindh government’s decision of complete lockdown. A few months prior also, the toughest sanctions were imposed by Sindh Government which had a devastating effect on the daily wagers and businesses alike. We understand the fragility of the situation but support for lockdown is not possible at any cost. Vaccines are available in large numbers in the province but are not being administered. Sindh is the only province where free vaccines is being sold in the open market.
Samir Mir Shaikh said that this lockdown will cause irreparable damage to the economy of Karachi. The lockdown is not to prevent COVID but to appease the extortion mafia. It is also a fact that the aid received by the Sindh Government from abroad was eaten up without any explanations. No rations were distributed among the poor people, but the representatives of the Sindh government kept on giving speeches and making public appearances but the poor people kept on suffering and starving.
