Re: Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah and cold storage death toll of 7 people
Aap samajh nahi rahay ho.
Federal government was not short of rescue team or incapable of acting right. Only reason they initially did not demolished the wall of cold storage because they thought they may rescue trapped men without destroying the asset (cold storage at airport). Cold storage is CAA asset that comes under federal government.
Now, what you think Sindh government could have done?
(barring all drawbacks in Sindh government … taking the situation that was there at merit)
Obviously, Sindh government could not have gone in and demolished the wall to save the men trapped there without the consent of CAA and federal government (who were owner of the asset).
[Note: If Sindh government was asked to step in and handle the situation … that was not needed as federal government was capable of handling the situation … I believe, Sindh government could have sent a bill of expenses to federal government too … as that is how governments and its finances work …
For instance … when Sindh government is using rangers to bring law and order in Karachi, Sindh government is paying huge amount of money to federal government for those rangers].
obviously I am blinded by the loss of life and the oh-so-legal-functional-federal/provincial-govt were right to worry about their assets/jurisdictions.
