Karachi (HRNW)<\/strong> \u2013 During the Sindh Assembly budget session, Opposition Leader Ali Khurshidi<\/strong> delivered a critical speech, questioning the government\u2019s performance in the education and transport sectors.<\/p>\n

Addressing the assembly, Ali Khurshidi said, \u201cThese schools belong to all of us\u2014not just to you or me,\u201d<\/em> emphasizing the collective responsibility toward public institutions.<\/p>\n

Referring to statements made by Provincial Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon<\/strong>, Khurshidi noted that approximately 125,000 people<\/strong> are currently using the Sindh Bus Service. He argued that in a province with a population of around 60 million<\/strong>, only a very small fraction is benefiting from public transport facilities.<\/p>\n

He stated that the figure represents just 0.25% of the population<\/strong>, adding that even if the bus service is doubled, the coverage would only increase to around 0.5%<\/strong>, which he described as insufficient.<\/p>\n

Questioning the government\u2019s performance, the Opposition Leader asked how such statistics could be presented as a success.<\/p>\n

He also made remarks directed at assembly members, stating, \u201cYou may beat your desks loudly, but you must also fulfill the rights of your constituencies and the people who elected you.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The session reflected continued debate between the opposition and treasury benches over public service delivery, particularly in education and urban transport development.<\/p>\n
