An "All Parties Conference" on Sunday, summoned here by All Parties Action Committee against the razing of villages in Karachi, demanded of the city government to immediately stop the bulldozing operation.
The APC was presided over by Convenor Zafar Taqi Rizvi, while Qazi Ahmed Noorani (JUI), Laeeq Ahmed Rajput (Pakistan Awami Party), Javed Shah Jadoon (PPPP), Malik Naeem Awan (PML-N), Kaiser Ayub (Pakistan Nationalist Party), Zubair Rehman (Socialist Movement),
Sher Muhammad Baloch (JUP), Syed Kausar Zaidi (Shia Ulema Council),
Naeemuz Zaman Khokhar (Christian Democratic Union of Pakistan) among others attended.
The participants strongly criticised the bulldozing of villages in the city and said that those groups who had taken the city hostage at gunpoint were trying to bath it with a new bloodshed.
They said that those localities and villages were being targeted from where these groups had to taste defeat in last local government polls. They added that by razing villages these groups were trying to reduce the vote bank of opponents.
The leaders said that political parties of Karachi would foil this conspiracy and demanded resignation of Sindh home minister over failure to control law and order situation.
The moot also demanded an end to operations in Wana, Waziristan and Balochistan.
The meeting decided that the All Parties Action Committee would observe a token hunger strike in front of the Karachi Press Club on Tuesday (March 27) against the razing operation.
