Neither imposing governor’s rule nor conducting operation in Sindh: Rasheed

KARACHI (92 News) - Minister for Interior Sheikh Rasheed has said that It seems that the whole of Karachi is burning but neither we are imposing governor’s rule nor conducting operation in Sindh.

“I want to clarify one thing that I am not on any mission here,” the minister said upon reaching Karachi on a two-day visit. “The law and order is a provincial matter.”

Sheikh Rasheed's visit comes at a time when the Sindh police are conducting an operation against bandits holed up in Shikharpur’s kutcha (riverine) area.

At least three policemen were killed after bandits ambushed a police team in the district a few days ago. The police launched an operation to clear the area, which is still ongoing.

Sheikh Rasheed said he would meet Rangers officials to discuss the law and order situation in the province.

“I will also meet CM Murad Ali Shah tomorrow morning,” Rasheed added.
