He stated that under the new SOPs for Motor Vehicle Inspectors (MVIs) and Motor Vehicle Fitness Certificates, fitness certificates with barcodes will be issued to prevent the issuance of fake certificates. This measure will make it impossible to produce counterfeit certificates. Motor Vehicle Inspectors are being further empowered, and old fitness certificates will now be rejected across Sindh, with new certificates issued in their place. He added that support is being sought from the Sindh Police, Traffic Police, and Motorway and Highway Police to ensure road safety and vehicle fitness compliance. Additionally, an awareness campaign will be launched to promote road safety.
He said that Chinese investors recently visited Pakistan and held meetings with President Asif Ali Zardari, the Chief Minister of Sindh, and other officials. They signed MoUs with various departments and private business groups.

He noted that such a project would bring foreign investment, boost foreign exchange, and create new employment opportunities. “Our first priority is to provide employment to the people,” he emphasized.

He pointed out that the PTI government was in power in KP at the time of the Army Public School tragedy and during the Bannu jail break.
He emphasized that KP needs to focus on fighting terrorists, not its federal government. The KP government has failed to protect its citizens, he added. “You have been a disgrace to the country, spending just one and a half years in prison, yet trying to create anarchy. Meanwhile, our leadership has always remained focused on Pakistan, even after serving 12 years in prison.”
