He maintained that the people of Sindh will resist the SPLGO till its abrogation which he said believed has divided Sindh administratively. He called upon the Urdu-speaking Sindhis to raise their voice against the SPLGO, which he called a conspiracy to fan a civil war in the province.

Sarki also announced that his party on October 3 would stage rallies to protest across the province against the ordinance and on October 14, they would organise a march in Karachi for which he sought support of other nationalist parties.

Abdul Fatah Channa, vice president of JST, Javed Chachar and other leaders were also present. ….
