KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah said on Monday that provinces should have been taken into confidence about the federal government holding talks with the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP).
Sindh CM’s statements come after Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed said that the government was holding talks with the protesters.
“I came to know that the Interior Minister [Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed] had issued a statement about holding negotiations when I woke up for sehri,” he said while talking to the media in Islamabad. “I don’t know the details. The provinces were not taken into confidence.”
He said they found out about the operation to clear the protesters at the minute.
Murad, while commenting on the countrywide shutter-down strike, said no one will be stopped from holding peaceful demonstrations. “A law and order situation must, however, not be created.”
There can never be any compromise on how we feel about the Holy Prophet (PBUH). People must, however, ensure that they aren’t causing inconvenience to others.
