Why Hyderabad can’t be a district like Karachi, asks Khuhro
KARACHI: Acting Sindh Governor Nisar Khuhro Sunday called for division of Karachi into five districts if Hyderabad’s current position was to be maintained.Addressing a news conference at the PPP Media Cell here, he said that public opinion was not taken in the past on the division of Hyderabad and it was done only to gain political mileage.
“If the city of Karachi having population of more than 15 million can be made one district than why Hyderabad can’t become a single district?” he questioned.
About Prime Minister’s remarks about restoration of Hyderabad to its old position, he said that no notification was issued in this regard. Therefore, there was no need to show such reaction.
The acting governor said that PPP’s Core Committee was consistently trying to evolve a consensus on this issue and hoped that a joint agreement would be reached soon in this connection.
“Altaf Hussain believes in serious politics, he said, adding that the MQM chief will find out a solution by sitting together,” he added.
