SUKKUR - Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan will reach Sukkur this Friday and announce a package for Sindh, which is just a beginning, said Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Vice President and the leader of opposition in Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh on Wednesday. Addressing a press conference in Circuit House Sukkur, while being flanked by PTI Sukkur region president Syed Tahir Shah, Papu Chachar, Safia Malik and others, he said that the announcement of Sindh package would be the beginning of development in this province. He said soft loans were being given to youth to save them from joblessness. He said that they wanted to do much more but the sword of the 18th Amendment hanged over them. He said they supported this amendment but many people had done corruption in its garb. He said that during coronavirus pandemic, the federal government gave Rs60 billion to Sindh. He said the PPP government wanted all funds for its corruption. Haleem said people of Sindh would be given basic facilities. He said development of Sindh was development of Pakistan. He said more good news would come for the people of Sindh. He said corrupt politicians were opposing the census as they did not want development of the province. He said they wanted posting of their favourite deputy commissioners to get delimitation that favours their political interests.

Haleem said that census was due in Zardari government but he avoided it. He said in Sindh police system was in shambles. He said bribes were given for transfers and postings in police. 

He said as per planning and development, corruption of 44 percent was done in projects of Rs7 billion during five years. He said in Sindh healthcare sector was in poor condition. Measles is spreading fast. In Larkana, AIDS is wide spread. He said Shiekh Rashid wanted to talk about Bengalis along with Biharis. It was just a slip of tongue.
