Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon inaugurated Route 8 of the Yusuf Goth to Tower People’s Bus Service in Karachi. The event, held in Yusuf Goth, was attended by Pakistan People’s Party MPA Liaquat Askani, former MNA Qadir Mandukhel, and People’s Party leaders Habib Jadoon and Faisal Jamot, among others.
Addressing the ceremony, Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon said, “Today is a very important day as the route of the People’s Bus Service from Yusuf Goth to Tower is starting. The promises made by Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, President Asif Ali Zardari, Ms. Faryal Talpur, the Chief Minister of Sindh, and the elected representatives to the people are being fulfilled.”
He said that the leadership of the People’s Party is working day and night to provide maximum relief to the people. In the last four days, new buses have been deployed, and new routes have been started by the Sindh government. Millions of people will benefit from these new routes.
Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon said that in this era of inflation and intense heat, the government of Sindh is providing air-conditioned buses at minimum fares, ensuring that people can easily reach their destinations. This initiative aims to make daily travel, including commutes for work and education, more convenient and comfortable.
He said that when petrol prices increased and there was talk of raising bus fares, the Chief Minister stated that the government of Sindh would not burden the people and that subsidies would be provided. The Sindh government has introduced a women-only pink bus service and an eco-friendly electric bus for the first time in Pakistan. The best hospitals in all of Pakistan are in Sindh; name any other province where the government provides free treatment like Sindh.
Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon said that when people became homeless due to rains and floods, Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari promised to provide housing for all flood victims. Currently, following the instructions and orders of Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, the government of Sindh is constructing houses for 2.1 million families. Floods also occurred in Punjab, KP, and Balochistan, but such initiatives were not undertaken in regions without a PPP government.
He said that a leader claimed to have collected five billion rupees for the flood victims. I want to ask, where are those five billion rupees? Was that money used for terrorism and social media propaganda, or was it used to create chaos in the country? In the 2018 elections, the public mandate of the entire nation was stolen, and an artificial politician was presented as the leader.
He said that we promised the elected representatives here that buses would be operational. Today, Alhamdulillah, buses are running from here. The work done by the People’s Party for Karachi is evident to everyone, and the people are aware of what others have done to this city. The entire leadership of the People’s Party, including Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, President Asif Ali Zardari, and Ms. Faryal Talpur, are all working for the betterment of Karachi.
Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon said “Shaheed Bhutto was judicially murdered, sentenced under pressure by the courts, but he did not receive justice. Shaheed Bibi’s government was terminated unconstitutionally; she approached the court but did not receive justice either. President Asif Ali Zardari was imprisoned for 12 years without any crime, and Ms. Faryal Talpur was arrested from the hospital on the night of Eid. Despite these injustices, the People’s Party has never spoken against country. At the time of Shaheed Bibi’s martyrdom, President Asif Ali Zardari raised the slogan of ‘Pakistan Khape’.
He said that if the leader of PTI is arrested, incidents like those on May 9 occur. When the police went to arrest Imran Khan in Zaman Park, they were attacked with petrol bombs. It is crucial to differentiate between terrorism and politics. Regarding funding from countries like India and Israel, you must explain to the nation why they are supporting you.
Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon said that the party that provided the country with its constitution, nuclear power, and provincial autonomy, including the naming of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, is the Pakistan People’s Party. The People’s Party has always served the people and will continue to do so in the future.
