Sindh development budget better than other provinces, says Murad Shah

KARACHI (92 News) - Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Shah has said that the province’s development budget is better than other provinces despite the fact it was prepared in difficult conditions.

Addressing the post-budget press conference on Saturday, he expressed the resolve to achieve the targets set in the budget.

Complaining about abolishing of the Sindh’s development schemes, he said that the federal government should give the uplift schemes to Sindh by considering it part of Pakistan. “We are neither running the government for the first time nor for the last time. Our policies and schemes are long-term. We will focus on completing the old schemes,” he added.

Murad Ali Shah said that the salaries of the government employees should be increased by over 30 percent, but the private sector objects to it. “Our opponents are forced to applaud our public-private partnership,” he added.
