PPP appoints administrators in Karachi for corruption, not for resolving problems: JI

Jamaat-e-Islami Karachi chief Hafiz Naeemur Rehman said on Saturday that the PPP government in Sindh had been ruining Karachi for the past 13 years while the Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan was in hands in glove with it.

Talking to the media, he highlighted the situation of cleanliness and offal collection in various areas of the city, and said that a large number of people were facing severe problems due to the incompetence of the provincial government.

He said that during the past 13 long years, the provincial government had failed to install a proper and effective system for garbage and offal collection on any such occasion in particular and throughout the year in general.

Further criticising the Sindh government's policy towards Karachi, the JI leader added that the PPP government appointed administrators in Karachi for corruption and not for any good.

On the occasion, he also the JI workers for volunteering their services for the poor families in Karachi.

Rehman informed the media persons that JI held collective Qurbani at a large number of spots across the city as well as at state-of-the-art slaughterhouses. Besides this, a large number of animals were slaughtered by philanthropists to please Allah, and the meat was distributed among poor people.

The meat of sacrificial animals was transported to several areas of the city with the help of chiller trucks, he said.
