Sindh Chief Minister (CM) Syed Murad Ali Shah reacted to the Punjab government’s decision to reduce electricity tariff for two months, terming it a ‘bizarre’ announcement.
Addressing a ceremony in Karachi, CM Murad Ali Shah said that such ‘strange’ announcements put them in a quandary. “We (Sindh government) find it difficult how to respond to these foolish statements. But I don’t want to go into politics” he added.
The chief minister wondered how people find time to appear on TV.
“My party chairman and Sindh information minister often get unhappy with me as I don’t appear on television to project the works being done in the province,” CM Murad Ali Shah added.
The chief minister asked if speaks on TV all the time, when would he get the time to work.
Earlier, Mayor Karachi Barrister Murtaza Wahab also responded to the Punjab government’s decision and said that there is a need for long-term relief measures for the people.
“When we (PPP’s Sindh government) think of relief, we also think of many options. What will happen after two months of relief to the people of Punjab?” he asked
