imageISLAMABAD: Former President Asif Ali Zardari has congratulated the provincial Sindh government specially Minister for Finance Murad Ali Shah for presenting a poor-friendly budget of year 2016-17.

In a statement issued by the party secretariat, Asif Zardari said that keeping the welfare of the poor people uppermost while making the budget has been the vision of party leaders Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto.

"Keeping alive the traditions of our Shaheed leaders, the Sindh government has given a pro-poor budget for which it deserves to be complimented," he added.

He said the strength of Sindh budget lies in the fact that it has been formulated in the spirit of reconciliation and participatory politics with emphasis on job creation and focus on benefiting both the people of rural areas and cities of the province.

Asif Zardari also appreciated the Sindh government for making special efforts for providing clean drinking water to the people of Thatta.
