KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah has said that he will present budget for the next financial year, 2018-19 on May 10 at 3pm.

“The new elected government would have to authenticate the budget from the provincial assembly for another nine months,” he said clearly.

Replying to a question, the chief minister said that worst law order was created in the city and everywhere there was a wave of fear and insecurity. 

“The former chief minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah during his tenure launched targeted operation in the city which turned to be most successful operation ever made in the city,” he said and added the government with the hard work and sacrifices of law enforcement agencies liberated the people of this city from the sway of target killers, extortionists and terrorists.

He said that MQM has gone berserk just after witnessing the huge public meeting of Chairman Bilawal Bhutto at Liaquatabad. 

“Now, the MQM leaders just for their face saving have announced public meetings there,” he said and added “we don’t have any objection on holding political meetings or political work by any party but MQM understands very well that their people are not now with them.

To a question, the chief minister said that an exercise has been launched to trace out ghost employees from local bodies and everyone knows who had stuffed them with which party they belong to.
