During the meeting, Syed Ali Zaidi apprised the foreign minister/vice-chairman PTI, of the details regarding the ‘Sindh long march’ scheduled for February 26 from Ghotki to Karachi, a press release said.

Qureshi observed that all the political parties had been protesting against the black local bodies’ law of the Sindh government.

He said the PTI could not leave the people of Sindh in poverty and backwardness, adding their political struggle would continue for the abolition of the discriminatory local government system of Sindh.

The foreign minister said that the use of force to disperse the peaceful demonstration of citizens in Karachi was highly condemnable.
