ISLAMABAD: The treasury members from Karachi on Tuesday blasted the PPP-led Sindh government in the National Assembly for its decision to impose a strict lockdown in the provincial capital in the wake of Covid-19 pandemic, alleged political victimisation of the opposition leader in the Sindh Assembly and “worsening law and order situation” in the city as one of the MNAs even called for imposition of governor rule in the province.
The MNAs belonging to the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) and the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) vowed to support the Karachi traders protesting against the Sindh government’s decision to impose the nine-day lockdown and warned that there could be an “anarchy-like situation” in the city if the decision was not reversed.

ISLAMABAD: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) parliamentarians on Tuesday registered a protest in the National Assembly against the lockdown and certain restrictions imposed in Karachi to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Speaking on a point of order in the lower house of parliament, MQM member Usama Qadri said the Sindh government is following different policies with regard to the lockdown in Karachi and interior Sindh. The provincial government is acting against guidelines of the National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) which called for following a smart lockdown policy across the country to keep the economic activity going. A curfew-like situation in Karachi is badly affecting exporters, big and small traders and the workers community. “All these people are protesting against the policies of the Sindh government,” the MQM member said.
