Karachi, Apr 25(ANI): The Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) and the Awami National Party (ANP) have criticised Pakistan Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif for demanding the division of Sindh province.

PPP leader Agha Siraj Durrani said his party would never allow break-up of the province, while an MQM spokesman said the party would not let Sindh be divided under any circumstances.

ANP Sindh chief Shahi Syed said Shahbaz’s statement had greatly disappointed people in the province.

Shahbaz had earlier said that the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) would not oppose the creation of a Saraiki province in Punjab, if more provinces were created in Pakistan. (ANI)
