The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) warned the federal government on Saturday against interfering in Sindh’s constitutional status. At a meeting chaired by PPP Sindh President Nisar Ahmed Khuhro, the party criticized federal ministers for making statements about new provinces and administrative units. The PPP demanded that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif stop federal ministers from spreading rumors and confusion about such matters.
The meeting reviewed the political situation following the Sindh Assembly’s resolution opposing any division of the province. Participants criticized statements from MQM-Pakistan, PTI, and Jamaat-e-Islami for not participating in the voting on the resolution. The PPP emphasized that the 18th Constitutional Amendment, provincial autonomy, Sindh’s territorial integrity, and the rights of provinces should not be undermined.
It urged the federal government to not weaken democratic institutions without the necessary parliamentary majority. The party vowed to continue defending Sindh’s unity and rights through constitutional and democratic means.
