Sindh’s share in urea being given to Punjab, alleges adviser to Sindh CM on agriculture

Islamabad/IBNS: Adviser to Sindh chief minister on agriculture Manzoor Hussain Wassan has alleged that Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan-led federal government was giving Sindh’s share of urea to other provinces by exerting pressure on fertiliser companies.

Addressing a press conference here, he was quoted as saying by The Dawn that Federal Minister Hammad Azhar had slashed Sindh's quota of urea fertiliser to provide more to Punjab.

“On the directive of Federal Minister Hamad Azhar, Punjab has been given more quotas,” he said, alleging that the federal minister was instrumental to ‘smuggling’ of urea from Sindh to other provinces.

He was quoted as saying by The Dawn that the federal government wanted to create a shortage of fertiliser in Sindh.

“Injustice is being committed with Sindh,” he said, asking PM Imran Khan to have mercy on the province.
