Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly, Syed Khursheed Shah on Sunday said that federal institutions like the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) and the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) should not have any role to play in Sindh.

Speaking to media representatives here, he said Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain himself invited the Pak Army for the targeted operation in the metropolis. Therefore, recent ‘hue and cry’ from Mr Hussain against arrests and raids was not justified, he added.

The Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) stalwart said he hopes that former chief justice Iftikhar Chaudhry play an active role in the country’s political affairs.

Declaring corruption a ‘cancer’, Shah said the ‘disease’ had spread during the 55-year-long dictatorial regimes in the country.

Talking to media after Eid Milan party in Madrasa Ghousia, Khursheed Shah said that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif must have discussed regarding Indian interference in Kashmir including Baluchistan, during his meeting with Indian Prime Minister Modi.
He said that Pakistan should compile new policy after Iran agreement. He said that those leaving PPP had also come from somewhere else to us, now they are searching for new ventures, adding that Bilawal is enough for PPP.

He said that the country needs a new foreign policy at this time, adding that Pakistan should benefit from Iran’s nuclear deal with western countries to its fullest. He said Pakistan should improve relations with its neighbours.

Shah said the current government was hesitant from entering into any agreement with Iran before, he said, but this hesitation should now end.

Speaking against the likelihood of Martial Law in Sindh, he said Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain himself invited the army for operation because he didn’t trust the police.
