KARACHI: Candidates from various political parties had to face the music at the hands of public as the politicians were asked tough questions on visit to their respective constituencies.

PPP leader and former Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah, PPP leader Mehtab Hussain Dahar, PTI leaders Amir Liaqat Hussain and Khurram Sher Zaman were asked tough questions by people in their respective constituencies.

Ex-CM Murad Ali Shah’s visit to his constituency in Sehwan did not go as planned as he had to face tough questions from disgruntled residents, who chanted slogans against him and the party. He could also be seen in a video asking to turn off the cameras.

On the other hand, PPP leader Mehtab Hussain Dahara received numerous complaints about lack of basic facilities in Daharki, a city in Ghotki district. Moreover, a father and a son also presented their reservations before Mehtab, but he did not pay heed to the them and fled the area under stern security.

PTI leader and televangelist Amir Liaquat Hussain’s visit to his constituency did not end well too, as the public chanted slogans against him. “Amir Liaquat Murdabad,” the angry audience chanted.

On the other hand, PTI candidate from PS-110, Khurram Sher Zaman, faced the same situation when he visited his constituency. The residents told the PTI leader that he had done nothing for them during his time as an MPA.

Public questioning candidates a little less than a month before the election makes it certain that this time the young voters will have their leaders held accountable and have their voice heard through social media.
