Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon has stated that Karachi does not belong to any single political party, but is the economic hub of Pakistan and the capital of Sindh. Responding to a statement by Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) chief Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui, Memon remarked that the Karachi of before MQM was not defined by terror and fear, but by the fragrance of life. He described it as a city free of extortion, killings over hides, bodies in sacks, and linguistic prejudice.
Memon's Response to MQM-P
The senior minister asserted that the people are not unaware of history. They know who gave the city peace and who gave it bodies in sacks, he added. Memon emphasized that the Sindh government is addressing Karachi's problems through practical measures, not political slogans or theatrics.
Development Projects Underway
He highlighted that the Sindh government has launched large-scale development projects across Karachi. The progress visible in Karachi today is the result of the Pakistan Peoples Party's efforts, Memon said. He remarked that those who claim credit for Karachi's development for their own party are well known to the people of Karachi.
Memon further stated that Karachi is not a city of hatred and division, but a 'Mini Pakistan' built on development, peace, and unity. He called for collective efforts to maintain the city's harmony and prosperity.
