Karachi, Khurram Sher Zaman, a prominent leader of Tehreek-e-Insaf in Sindh, has voiced strong opposition to the imposed restrictions preventing meetings with the party’s founder, likening Pakistan under the current administration to an occupied Kashmir. He stressed that the denial of such basic rights is antithetical to democratic values and highlighted broader concerns regarding the current government’s policies and their implications for the nation’s future.

According to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, Zaman criticized the handling of political dissent and the treatment of political figures in custody, asserting that actions taken against the party’s founder represent a violation of human rights. He called for legal action against the superintendent of Adiala Jail for obstructing meetings and lambasted the ruling coalition for what he perceives as their failure to govern effectively, particularly criticizing the inadequacy of the recently announced Ramadan relief package. Zaman expressed disillusionment with the current leadership’s inability to fulfill election promises and forewarned of the government’s alleged plans to abscond in the face of national crises.

The leader’s remarks underscore a deepening political rift and growing dissatisfaction among opposition ranks regarding governance and political freedoms. Zaman concluded by affirming the party’s resolve to reconnect with its leader, indicating that efforts to engage with and rally the party’s base are ongoing despite current challenges.
