Sindh Water Shortage
Water Shortage in Sindh: Murad blames IRSA
Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah has said injustice has been done to the people of his region in the Water Accord of 1991.
Murad was quoted as saying by The News International that he doesn’t have any complaint against Punjab, adding the Indus River System Authority has not been distributing river water judicially among the provinces.
Speaking at the post-budget press conference here on Wednesday, the Sindh chief minister said he wouldn’t blame Punjab for the water crisis in his province when the IRSA was at fault on this issue.
He was quoted as saying by the newspaper that those who had rejected the new Sindh government’s budget had themselves been rejected by the people, so it didn’t make any difference if they refused to accept the budget.
“Those who earlier used to win 21 seats (in the assembly) have been reduced to a very few seats,” the CM said while referring to the Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan without naming the opposition political party in the province.
