Sindh being looted on different pretexts, claims Palejo

NAWABSHAH: Chief of Qaumi Awami Tehreek, Ayaz Latif Palejo, said that Sindh was being looted on different pretexts since the creation of Pakistan.
He said that Gen Zia, Gen Musharraf, the Muslim League and the Pakistan People’s Party looted the people of Sindh from time to time. He was addressing the Mohabbat-e-Sindh Rally at Jamsahib near Nawabshah.
Palejo said that the PPP exploited the people of Sindh emotionally by invoking the memory of Benazir Bhutto now and then. He alleged that the PPP governments misappropriated relief funds provided by foreign countries and NGOs during floods. Palejo said that the PPP even exploited the assassination of Benazir Bhutto.
He said that the roads of Sindh were in a dilapidated condition, medicines were not available in government hospitals, bribe was rampant on the transfers and postings of government employees, and jobs, even that of a sanitary worker, were being sold. Palejo said that thousands of schools were non-functional, and teachers were working as personal employees of the rulers. He said that through the Mohabbat-e-Sindh Rally they were going to the doorsteps of common man to create awareness among our people to get rid of looters and think about the future.
