Sharjeel Memon, Senior Provincial Minister of Sindh, addressed concerns regarding ongoing development projects, acknowledging that while there may have been administrative shortcomings, the government\u2019s intentions remain genuine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During a visit to the University Road Red Line Project, he remarked that some individuals are politicizing issues and attempting to spread pessimism about the project. He emphasized that efforts are underway to clear University Road, despite the project\u2019s increased costs and previous delays caused by administrative matters. \u201cAll challenges notwithstanding, work on this project continues,\u201d he said, stressing that the delays were due to administrative procedures rather than negligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sharjeel Memon highlighted that the government has instructed completion of work on side streets of University Road before Eid to facilitate public convenience. He noted that multiple mega projects are underway in Karachi, with both the Sindh administration and the Karachi Mayor\u2019s office working tirelessly to ensure timely progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Responding to rumors about discontinuing the Red Line BRT project, Memon asserted that the initiative is meant to benefit future generations and should not be halted. \u201cWe must provide projects that genuinely serve the public,\u201d he said, emphasizing the long-term utility of the infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The minister also raised concerns regarding customs duties, pointing out that Punjab government buses were charged only 1 percent, while Sindh\u2019s buses incurred 17\u201318 percent charges. He demanded uniform treatment across provinces to avoid disparities affecting public transport projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On political matters, Memon commented on Imran Khan, founder of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, expressing well-wishes for his long life. Regarding Khan\u2019s potential release, he noted that the decision lies with Khan himself. Memon also criticized social media followers of PTI for targeting institutions and advised careful choice of words, suggesting that responsible discourse could lead to better outcomes in public matters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
