PPP Suspends Political Activities Amid Flood Crisis in Sindh
The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has made a significant announcement: all political activities in the Sindh province are now on hold. This decision comes in response to the increasing flood crisis affecting many communities in the area. PPP Sindh President Nisar Khuhro shared that the party’s focus will shift entirely towards aiding those impacted by the floods, especially in the vulnerable katcha (riverine) areas.
Khuhro urged all party leaders and workers to rally together, establishing relief camps and ensuring supplies reach displaced families. “We must support flood victims in every possible way,” he emphasized, showing the PPP’s dedication to standing by its people during such challenging times.
In light of these emergencies, Khuhro reiterated their commitment: the party will actively engage in relief and rehabilitation operations. The Sindh government is on high alert as well, keeping a close watch on the situation to minimize any potential damage. Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has also reached out to the federal government, urging them to seek international assistance from the United Nations for better flood relief strategies.
During a recent inspection at Guddu and Sukkur Barrages, Shah expressed optimism that the floodwaters would pass through without catastrophic consequences. He reassured citizens that all necessary precautions are in place, with officials deployed from Kashmore to Keti Bandar to monitor the situation.
Additionally, Shah aligned with PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari’s call for the immediate disbursement of relief funds via the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP). The Chief Minister emphasized the urgency of these funds, stating that "the federal government must act swiftly" to facilitate relief efforts.
