KARACHI A notification issued by the Sindh government which stated that the Pakistan Rangers is deployed under Article 47 to assist the civil administration made the paramilitary particularly unhappy. “The notification gives off the impression that the Rangers will operate like the police although Article 147 clearly states the opposite,” a Rangers spokesperson said. Under the notification, the rangers will be responsible for the security of the CM house, Governor House, courts, assembly, oil refinery, airport, and all important installations. The rangers would further be responsible for the security of educational institutions including universities and China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). Special powers awarded to the paramilitary force which included patrolling, snap checking, and raids conducted by the paramilitary force were discontinued on Friday. However, Rangers are to continue to provide security to the governor, chief minister, judges, airports, and sensitive installations. Governor Sindh Muhammad Zubair said that the presence of Rangers is critical for the peace and security of Karachi.
