KARACHI, Balochistan: The Leader of the Opposition in Sindh Assembly, Haleem Adil Sheikh, Wednesday termed Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s claims of winning elections from Karachi as day-dreaming and said that PPP had not provided any facility to the metropolis in the previous 13 years.

Mr Sheikh, in a statement, said that PPP, during its 13 years long government in Sindh, could not run a single bus in Karachi nor did it added one additional drop to the water supply system of the largest city of the country.

People of Sindh were well aware of the performance of the PPP regime and in the next election not only Karachi but the entire province would reject those who were dreaming of election victory on the basis of dismal performance and prolonged poor governance in Sindh, he noted.

Haleem also refuted statement of Bilawal Zardari that not a single rupee was spent out of Rs 1100 billion package and termed it an irresponsible statement. He said that the PPP chairman had portrayed only one side of the picture and he was right to the extent that the Sindh government had not spent even a rupee in this regard.

Federal government’s share in the package was 62 percent while remaining 38 percent was the share of the Sindh government, Sheikh informed and added that the federal government was spending Rs 35 billion on Orangi, Mehmoodabad, and Gujjar nullahs and 80 percent work had been completed.

Track of green line was complete while buses have arrived at the Karachi port as well, Haleem said and hoped that green line service would be on the roads in September this year. Significant progress was recorded on two other transport sector projects, freight terminal and Karachi Circular Railway, as well, he added. Work on another important project for bulk supply of water to Karachi K-4 has been expedited after handing over the project to WAPDA, Haleem Sheikh said.
