 IDPs not immigrants: ANP
Saturday, May 23, 2009
By our correspondent

Karachi

Awami National Party (ANP) Sindh President Shahi Syed said on Friday that the internally displaced persons (IDPs) should be taken as ‘affected’ people rather than immigrants.

He said that it should be highlighted that they were in fact victims of terrorism. He appealed to all patriots to help their brothers and sisters in their time of need.

Syed also expressed his profound grief at the incident in Kashmore of Rangers and political groups stopping buses carrying IDPs, and also conveyed his sorrow over the refusal of Sindh and Punjab to accommodate IDPs in their provinces.

He said that the affected should be allowed to go anywhere in the country on account of being a Pakistani national. He also appealed to the government to take immediate notice of the incident in Kashmore as well as the banning of IDPs’ entry in Sindh and Punjab.
