The corruption is a cancer and all out efforts are required to eliminate this menace from the society so that the national exchequer could be utilized for the welfare of the masses, he said this while talking to a delegation of Hyderabad Union of Journalists (Workers) and media persons here on late Friday evening.

He said though the complete elimination of corruption could not be possible however the affects of this menace can be minimized by bringing maximum number of those who looted the public money with both hands and usurped the rights of the people. Besides action against corruption at top level, the accountability should also be carried out at lower level, he said and added that this step would help in controlling the cancer of corruption at earliest.

The SAPM lashed out at the role of Sindh Government in spreading corruption in the province. The misuse of power taking advantage of the 18th Amendment as well as non-utilizing the granted funds for development schemes become the order of the day, he said and alleged that the Sindh government has caused severe damages to the progress of the province.
