On Wednesday, the resolution tabled by the provincial Home Minister Sohail Anwar Sial under Article 147 of the Constitution was approved in the Sindh Assembly amid opposition‘s protest.
The resolution states that Rangers will have to contact Sindh Chief Minister before making arrest of anyone who does not have direct link to terrorism and will need warrant before raiding a public office.
The opposition parties alleged that the ruling Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) is doing everything it can to ‘save corrupt individuals‘. They said the reduction in Rangers‘powers is not acceptable.
Afterwards, the protesting members stood up on their seats and tore down the copies of the resolution.
