Posted on September 7, 2024 by News Desk
Senior Minister for Sindh Sharjeel Inam Memon said that some bus operators have filed cases against the action on invented and misleading grounds, even though there is a free shuttle service to the new bus terminal in Karachi. According to him, certain operators are trying to exert pressure on public office bearers by avoiding legal action or pursuing personal interests. Sharjeel Inam Memon, the provincial minister for information, transport, excise, taxation, and narcotics control in Sindh, stated in a statement that although pressure is being applied, work will go and the terminal transfer will be guaranteed in any case.
According to him, the goal of moving the terminals outside of Karachi is to do rid of the illegal bus stations that are on city streets. The transport department is dedicated to respecting the law and following judicial directives.
According to Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon, court directives have been followed in the construction of bus stations outside the city borders.
The law should be respected and followed by all parties involved.
The Sindh government is conscious of the difficulties experienced by carriers and seeks to alleviate citizens’ suffering without having a negative impact on carriers’ companies.
He made it clear that talks with the transporters will carry on, and steps will be done to take into account the interests of all parties involved.
The transit Department is dedicated to making sure that transit in Sindh’s capital city runs smoothly and lawfully.
