CM Shah visits national stadium ahead of PSL final

Chief Minister Sindh Syed Murad Ali Shah has said that law and order situation in the city is very much under control and “we are making foolproof arrangements for PSL final match.”

Talking to media at National stadium Karachi, the CM said “The Sindh government has prepared a beautiful ground within the premises of the stadium for practice and other matches.” All the approaching roads, streets, compound wall, stadium, beautification and repair of the stadium and such other were being done by his government. “

This is our event and would all have to make it a successful,” he said.

He said that he had held a number of meetings to review the arrangements inside and outside the stadium.

Replying to a question, Murad Ali Shah said that he had provided enough funds to KMC so that all the roads, sewerage lines, lifting of garbage and such other civil works could be done. “Mayor Karachi has enough powers and he is also working for the betterment of the city,” he said.

He said that nobody would be given free passes to witness the PSL Final match. “To enjoy the match you have to buy the ticket, otherwise be happy by watching it on your TV sets at home,” he said in a lighter mood.

Murad Ali Shah said that he wished best of luck for all the teams participating in the PSL matches but “being chief minister of Sindh and Karachiite I am supporting and praying for Karachi Kings,” he said.

Earlier, the chief minister visited all under construction/renovation parts and enclosures of the National Stadium and directed the local government minister to get it completed by March 22.  He was accompanied by provincial Home Minister Sohail Anwar Siyal and Local Government Minister Jam Khan Shoro.
