PPP intensifies pressure for the removal of Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori
Political tensions in Sindh have flared up again, with Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori right in the middle of the latest storm. The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), which runs the province, isn’t holding back—they want Tessori out, saying he’s turned the Governor House Karachi into a political base instead of keeping it neutral, as the Constitution demands.
PPP leaders aren’t mincing words. Saeed Ghani and Sharjeel Inam Memon, among others, have come out swinging. They’ve called on Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to step in and bring in a governor who’ll keep things above board and stop fueling more political division in Sindh.
For the PPP, the Governor House is supposed to stand for unity, not politics. They keep pointing out that the office should stay away from any kind of political activity, especially since the province already has its fair share of rivalries and tension.
Their main complaint? They say Governor Tessori is using his position for political outreach straight from the Governor House. In their eyes, that crosses a line. The office, they argue, should focus on serving the public and managing the province, not getting caught up in political games that only crank up the friction between Sindh and Islamabad.
This isn’t just a one-off spat. Sindh has always been PPP territory, and any hint that the federal government is meddling sparks a strong response from the party. Demanding Tessori’s removal is about more than just one man—it’s about the ongoing tug-of-war between Sindh’s push for autonomy and federal oversight.
Of course, Tessori’s backers say he’s just trying to connect with the public. But the PPP isn’t buying it. They say the rules are clear: the governor should stay out of the political fray. This whole episode really puts a spotlight on the deeper rivalries shaping Sindh’s politics.
At the heart of the PPP’s demand is a call for stability. They want things to calm down and for everyone, especially the federal government, to steer clear of moves that could stir up more trouble. By appealing directly to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, they hope to cool things off and reinforce the constitutional boundaries that keep provincial and federal roles separate.
All eyes are now on what happens next. The fate of Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori—and the atmosphere inside Governor House Karachi—hangs in the balance. The federal government’s next move will say a lot about how power, the Constitution, and political maturity play out in Sindh.
In a place where provincial identity and self-rule mean everything, this isn’t just another political squabble. The way this gets resolved will set the tone for everything that comes after, both in Sindh and across Pakistan.
