Rana Sanaullah fears violence during LG polls in Sindh

Expressing his deep concern regarding tension over local government elections in Karachi and Hyderabad scheduled to be held tomorrow, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah has expressed his fear that a conflict might occur during the elections, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Saturday.

He said that disagreement among political parties over the LG polls in these two divisions has assumed a dangerous proportion. Two political parties want the elections tomorrow while two are opposing it, he observed. 

Given the circumstances, a clash might occur and the disruptive elements might take advantage of it and create law and order situation, he cautioned.

Sanaullah also warned that a small incident might trigger a big tragedy.

It is the need of the hour that the political parties and other election holding authorities showed an understanding, defused the atmosphere of tension and reached a consensus, he advised. 

He suggested that the Election Commission and courts take notice of the gravity of situation and find a solution in the light of law and order.
