Larkana is a microcosm of what ails Pakistan ruling political elite and bureaucracy; corruption, lack of health and education, deprivation, no equality before law, incompetence, cronyism, mismanagement and bad governance.
What could we have been, but what have we been reduced to? It saddens me.

PPP always won from Larkana but instead of noticeable improvements in lives of common people in Larkana, PPP waderas became billionaires.

The most dedicated to one party are one of the most neglected. Is Larkana ready to give someone else a chance?

PPP has not only left the moral authority but it's been hijacked by Zardari clan who has ridicule poor Sindhi people's vote in the name of martyred benazir and Bhutto

Well, the whole SINDH is far behind even from the developing provinces or states. There are no facilities and no improvement in the common people's life. The unemployment is touching skies and many people who are either associated with NEWS channels or to any plitician are enjoying multiple salaries without offering any service to the Government. The situation is deteriorating day by day and there is no body to listen the poor peoples of SINDH.

People of Sindh should participate in PTI rally in big numbers, not for the love of IK/PTI but for their own sake. It will help to change 'laid-back' and 'dont-care' attitude of rulers of Sindh. People of Sindh should convey that their support for PPP must not be taken for granted.

The image of Larkana covered by Dawn look like the dump of filth with deep road trenches in and around the city despite that the ruling party observe and celebrates the annual days of their deads of Bhutto family. The party which cannot develop the birth and last place of its founder doesnot deserve to rule the province. Wake up Sindhi and snatch your rights from the looters live with dignity and honour while brining change in your constituencies.

It is not about Sindhi or non sindhi, it's about the welfare of the people. Who ever can bring relief to the common man needs to represent them. IK will win larkana.

They will not change. They are blinded by so called nationalism.

The city that has produced 2 PMs is one of the least developed city in the country and the province. It is mind boggling that a country where politicians traditionally usually develop their own cities or at least spend money on them rather than treating everything city of the country fairly, PPP Jialas form some reason fail to see that. Even Shariffs spent money on Lahore, Gilani spent money on Multan, MQM under Mustafa kamal spent money on Karachi. 2 PMs came from Larkana, and it is still one of the most backward city.

This is the first and last opportunity for the people of Sindh. PPP has been ruling Sindh for God know how long and yet, they have contributed nothing towards the betterment of the people. Example of Thar is in front of you and this is not the first time this has happened in Thar. The province where babies are dieing everyday and their CM is making excuses, that should be the last straw to kick them out. Not sure how many more example these people need.

The last comment by PPP supporter shows the mindset. Young people support PTI and their support does not matter cause they are not eligible to vote.....how short sighted this statement is. One day they will become eligible as your new leader Bilawal has now become eligible to compete in election.

This will be a good eye opener for PPP leadership; if IK gets a crowd of 50000, it will change the political scenario of interior Sindh . IK has taken a big challenge of holding rally in the most vital city as far as PPP is concerned. Let us see what happens next??

@Chadio It looks like you are ready to WELCOME PTI. When you do that, be nice to PPP people, a polite GOOD BYE would be just fine.

Enslavement of thought, change a risky proposition, however the present rulers may become benevolent quiet soon, otherwise " you reap what you sow"

Imran Khan used sindhi nationalists grass points to attract sindhi Awam as PPP did many times. Very dangerous trends to divide Pakistanis. I do not see any difference btw IK and wadera. he disappointed me. I went to larkana from khair pur to listened , I see VIP culture around him.
