We quit govt over principles: Pir Pagara

HYDERABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Functional (PML-F) leader, Pir of Pagara Sibghatullah Rashdi, Friday said they had quit the government over principles, which they would never compromise on, Geo News reported.

“We reject Sindh Peoples Local Bodies Ordinance (SPLGO) 2012”, Pir Pagara said addressing a massive nationalist parties rally here.

On Kalabagh dam, he said the idea that building this very project was inevitable for Pakistan was not set in stone.

“It was written nowhere that this dam should be built. Dams are water reservoirs. Any dam would serve the same purpose,” said he.

Pir of Pagara said that the chapter of Kalabagh dam had closed once and for all.

“All they are trying to do is beat a dead horse back to life, which I am afraid will not”, said PML-F leader.
