To another question, he said the Sindh government has serious reservations on the construction of canals on the Indus River. Sindh is already suffering from a water shortage; our stand on this issue is clear and firm.
Answering another question, he said we are not an ally of the federal government, but we supported the government unconditionally so that the democratic system could move forward.

Owing to the exhibition of IDEAS, the routes of People’s Bus Service have been temporarily changed, which will be restored immediately after the exhibition. More buses are coming. We are also purchasing double-deckers for Karachi. The double-decker buses will start plying in Karachi.”
