Restoration of Sindhis’ right to rule urged
SUKKUR, April 15: Leaders of the Sindh Qaumi Ittehad on Saturday said that only the Sindhi nation has right to rule over Sindh.
They said that the people of Sindh would never allow construction of any dam over the Indus River.
Addressing a public gathering at People’s Chowk in Ghotki on Saturday, they termed bulldozing of Sindhi villages in Karachi and Hyderabad a conspiracy and made it clear that no further atrocities would be tolerated as the Sindhi nation had joined hands to regain its rights.
Sindh National Front chief Mumtaz Bhutto, STPP chief Dr Qadir Magsi, Gul Mohammad Jakhrani, Hussain Bux Thebo, Abdul Khaliq Junejo and Zain Shah spoke on the occasion.
The leaders condemned the Nishtar Park bomb blast and said that lives and properties of the people were not safe and the government had failed to provide protection to people. They said that they had arranged their own security instead of depending upon the administration and police.
They said that Sindhi villages in Karachi and Hyderabad were demolished to convert Sindhis into a minority.
They said that an ethnic group with the active support of the government was trying to settle illegal immigrants in Sindh.
They said that some Sindhi waders owing to their vested interest were dancing over the tune of President Musharraf but warned them that they were accountable to the people of Sindh.
They appealed to the Sindhi nation to join struggle for their rights from the platform of the Sindh Qaumi Ittehad which was the only platform fighting for just rights of the Sindhis.
Leaders of the Sindh Qaumi Ittehad were brought into a motorcade rally from Pano Akil to the venue of the public gathering where they were accorded a warm welcome.
Participants of the gathering raised slogans against anti-Sindh projects and bulldozing of Sindhi villages.
