They will decide after fulfilling the legal requirements, he said. He appreciated the president and officials of the ACP for organizing the event and said that the message of love and peace always goes from Sindh province. Murad Ali Shah said that in 15 years, some things were done for the development of the province which were not done in other provinces.
