Dr Safdar Ali Abbasi, the secretary general of the Grand Democratic Alliance, has condemned the police violence against protest sit-ins in various cities of Sindh against the construction of canals and illegal land allotment.

He stated that dozens of people, including lawyers, were injured and many arrested during the police crackdown. Dr Abbasi likened the attack on peaceful protest sit ins by the Sindh government to the era of dictatorship.

He mentioned that the protest movement for the past eight months in Sindh had been entirely peaceful and there had been no damage to vehicles and no stone throwing. He accused the Pakistan Peoples Party of trying unsuccessfully to end the peaceful protests through police force.
