Bilawal Bhutto meets CM, members of Sindh cabinet
KARACHI: Pakistan People’s Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has urged the Sindh cabinet to improve its performance and remain more accessible to the people to resolve their issues as PPP’s provincial government was meant to deliver more than any of its counterpart in the country.
PPP Chairman presided over a meeting of the Sindh cabinet held at the Bilawal House here on Saturday. Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah, Nisar Ahmed Khuhro, Mir Hazar Khan Bijarani, Manzoor Wassan, Mukesh Chawala and other ministers and special assistants to the Sindh chief minister attended the meeting. Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah informed the meeting that the Sindh government had released Rs161 billion in the three quarters of the current fiscal year of which Rs86 billion had been spent. “During the same period in the previous year, Rs101 billion were released and Rs51 billion were spent,” he said. Briefing the meeting, the Sindh Education Minister informed that of 5,000 closed schools, the Sindh government had reopened 2,079 primary schools, while 1,400 others had been found as inappropriate to reopen—as puppet regimes of the past had established dozens of school buildings in smaller villages to bribe their feudal allies. “Third party evaluation of the reopened schools is being carried out to ensure that they are fully functional, while teachers’ training is also being outsourced to improve primary education,” the minister informed. On the question of garbage in Karachi, the provincial local govt minister pointed out the hiccups in removal of garbage and pledged that the Sindh government was taking steps to make Karachi the cleanest city in the region, but cooperation of different tiers of elected local bodies was required without politicisation of the issue by the opponents.

Sindh culture minister said that the Umerkot Fort had been restored in its original glory in a short time while the work on the Kotdiji Fort was underway to re**vate it. About the historic and scenic Gorakh Hills in Dadu district, Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah said that talks were underway with the Asian Development Bank to build a spacious road for providing easy access to the tourists. He said several small tourist rest houses had also been built but there was a need of construction of a big resort.
