The rulers are trying to gag the vioce of people of Sindh, said Leader of Opposition in Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Shiekh here Wednesday.
Addressing a crowded press conference in Sindh Assembly flanked by MPAs Raja Azhar, Ali Aziz GG, Shahnawaz Jadoon, and Dr Seema Zia, he said they tried to frighten me by putting me in jail, but Allah, the Almighty, granted me further courage.
He said that no one could gag the vioce of people. He said Sindh is drowned into floodwater but the PPP is trying to manage media and social media so that no one can raise voice against them.
Haleem Adil said that a terrorism case was lodged against a senior citizen in Naushehro Feroze because he dared to protesr. He said it is hieght of cruelty that in Sindh wheat flour is being sold at Rs120 per kilogramme. He said advertisements of millions of rupees were issued for subsidized flour at Rs 65 per kilogramme but thid flour is available nowhere.
He said a minister claimed that seven hundred stalls have been established for Sasita Atta. He said we got investigated it and knew that no one was willing to buy this substandard flour. He said the rulers are trying to put Rs26bn subsidy on wheat flour in their pockets, like tractor subsidy and Omni Group subsidy.

He said after audio leak of Imran Khan it is proved that conspiracy was hatched through cypher. He said we are demanding to leak this cypher. He said in audio leak of Nawaz Sharif they talked about importing machinery from India.
He said that they talked about ending health card, raising oil prices and instructions to chief election commissioner. He said it proves that chief election commissioner is disqualified. He said we demand a judicial commission on audio leaks.
He said acting speaker of Sindh assembly formed a parliamentary committee to oversee distribution of relief goods and to turncoats Shaharyar Shar and Sachanand were made its members; however, no opposition member is included in the committee and we reject it.

He said if Manchhar Lake was opened at zero point ten days ago the damages would have been less. He said no one saw where 130 planeloads of relief goods were distributed. He asked where Rs 130 billion as claimed by Bilawal were spent.
