The Huqooq-e-Sindh March (transl. The Sindh Rights March) was a 2022 protest march against the provincial Sindh Government of Sindh, Pakistan. Inaugurated by PTI Vice Chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi, the march started on February 26 at the Shaheed commune in Ghotki near the Sindh–Punjab border, and ended on March 6 in Karachi.[1][2][3]

March route and timeline

[edit]

The route of the march was scheduled to incorporate 27 districts of the Sindh province, ending in Karachi on March 6.[4]

Addressing a press conference in Larkana, FM Shah Mahmood Qureshi said that we have excluded Nowshero Feroz, Halani and Kandiaro from the route of the march to avoid the expected clash and violence with the PPP workers.[4]

At the conclusion of the march, speeches were made by central PTI leaders in front of a large gathered crowd, and a charter of demands for the PPP was read out by PTI Sindh president, Ali Haider Zaidi.[6]
