Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah has publicly contested the Indus River System Authority’s (IRSA) controversial decision regarding the establishment of six new canals from the Indus River.

Speaking to the media on Monday, he revealed that he has formally written to the planning minister and Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar, urging them to withdraw this decision.

In response to inquiries about potential hidden conditions tied to the passage of the 26th Constitutional Amendment, CM Shah firmly denied any such claims. He emphasized that the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) would not endorse any actions that undermine the rights and interests of the people.

Reflecting on historical commitments, Shah noted that former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto had signed the Charter of Democracy aimed at reinforcing constitutional governance, stating, “Chairman Bilawal Bhutto has achieved that success after 18 years.”

He also expressed criticism of the current caretaker government, suggesting that it has not provided any tangible benefits and advocating for the removal of this clause from the constitution. When asked about the 27th amendment, CM Shah stated that he was unaware of its details and had only learned about it through the media.
