They also consulted respected journalists, including Abdul Razzaq Khatti, Qurban Baloch, Nisar Mugrio, Hussain Jarwar, and Murtaza Talpur, to ensure a broad perspective on the issues at hand.
The upcoming conference will tackle critical challenges such as the proposed construction of six new canals on the Indus River, amendments to the IRSA Act, and corporate farming. With representation from all four provinces, Kashmir, and minority communities, the event is designed to safeguard regional resources, foster national awareness, and present a unified challenge to the controversial policies of the Shahbaz-Bilawal-Zardari government.
The gathering underscores Awami Tahreek’s commitment to advocating for equitable resource management and resisting initiatives detrimental to the socio-economic and environmental interests of Pakistan’s diverse communities.
