HYDERABAD: The central executive committee of the Sindh United Party (SUP), which met in Jamshoro under the chairmanship of Syed Jalal Mehmood Shah on Tuesday, resolved that Pakistan`s establishment would have to go for accountability after giving up personal and other interests and pace of this accountability would have to be accelerated.
It also urged Supreme Court to take suo motu notice against the PPP government for protecting the feudal system. The apex court should put the system to an end, it added.
Unless tough decisions were taken to rid people of corrupt mafias and recover looted national wealthfrom them, the country could not be extricated from present morass, it said.
The meeting discussed overall political situation in the country, including Sindh. It also reviewed party`s ongoing `Sindh Bahali (rehabilitation) Tehreek`. It was attended by SUP president Syed Zain Shah, Roshan Ali Buriro, Jagdesh Ahuja, Ameer Azad Panhwar, Ameer Ali Thebo, Ghulam Mustafa Chandio and others.
The meeting also discussed 2023 general elections, SUP`s preparedness for polls and organisational matters, besides the party`s May-June protest plan as part of its movement which is aimed at raising voice against lawlessness and unemployment.
The meeting condemned attempts to stop Jeay Sindh Tehreek (JST) workers from assembling in Sann on the eve of G.M. Syed`s death anniversary, observed today (April 25).
It said that workers were insulted and humiliated when they reached Sann. It noted that PPP`s so-called democratic government always tried to provoke people in Sann which was nucleus of `gaumi tehreek` of Sindh.It said PPP had always tried to create a violent situation in Sann.
Zain Shah told journalists that there was instability in the country. He said SUP believed that state institutions had failed to maintain equilibrium due to ongoing political, economic and judicial crises. `SUP stands for a neutral set-up to hold free and fair elections as it is the only solution to present crises,` he said.
He said that SUP held PPP`s Sindh government responsible for present lawlessness which had gripped the entire province. On the one hand, he observed, economic degradation and destruction in the country had left people psychologically tormented and, on the other, cases of kidnapping for ransom and murder had become the order of the day.
Zain Shah said that 80pc villages in Sindh had become no-go areas due to cruel feudal system and tribal clashes in Shikarpur, Ghotki, KandhkotKashmore and Jacobabad. The government had lost its writ, he said, and noted that whenever police tried to arrest criminals, they themselves suffered heavy casualties.
