KARACHI: Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry on Sunday urged the Supreme Court to ensure implementation of Article 140-A of the constitution to address a “constitutional crisis” in Sindh.
He accused the provincial chief minister of indulging in “nationalist politics” as a “puppet of Zardari family” and misusing development funds. He blamed the top PPP leadership and provincial ministers for water shortage in Sindh.
Speaking at a press conference at the Governor House and talking to media at Arts Council, the minister said Article 140-A pertained to local government system and devolution of political, administrative and financial powers.
He said this was needed as there was no room for governor’s rule in the constitution which was not a solution of the problems.
