MQM members said that they were cheated over 18th amendment.

KARACHI (Dunya News) – Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) leaders on Saturday have alleged that behavior of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) divided the Sindh.

Addressing a press conference in Karachi, MQM members said that they were cheated over 18th amendment. They also urged Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan to interfere in the province’s matters under article 149 of the Constitution.  

They said that Karachi gives 95 percent revenue to the entire Sindh and demanded to distribute provinces’ 35 percent resources at grass root level.

Common man has been deprived of basic resources due to ‘provincial autonomy’, they went on to say.

The MQM leaders said that Karachi is facing several issues including clean water while rural and urban differences have now turned into ethnic discrimination in the province.

Muhajirs are being hurt in the name of nationalization, they concluded.
