Strict
security for cabinet meeting leaves many visitors
from the interior insulted and dejected
By Staff Reporter
KARACHI: A meeting of the Sindh Cabinet was
held on Thursday under tight security with a
heavy deployment of police around and adjacent
to the new Sindh secretariat where the cabinet
meeting was held under the chair of Chief Minister,
Syed Qaim Ali Shah.
Thousands of applicants for jobs were seen returning
frustrated and among them were many ordinary
people who had arrived in Karachi from the interior
of Sindh. They were also reports of them cursing
the government for not allowing them to submit
their job applications.
Many of the people from the interior were also
seen carrying box of sweets and cartons of dates
as gifts for local area ministers but due to
strict anti-people friendly security reasons,
the police did not allow these poor people to
give gifts to the ministers and legislators.
Many complained that they will also ignore their
area ministers in the same manner when they
come to seek their votes.
