Sindh govt won't set up cattle markets for Eid-ul-Azha: Nasir Shah.

The Sindh Government has told the federation that it does not support the idea of setting up cattle markets for Eid-ul-Azha in the province, said provincial Information Minister Nasir Shah on Friday.

Shah said that people who wished to sacrifice animals should contact religious scholars or local mosques, who can, in turn, perform the service for them.

The minister also shared that the provincial government has made arrangements for picking up the animal's carcasses across the province.

Karachi Commissioner Iftikhar Shallwani has already approved arrangements of collective sacrifice of sacrificial animals during Eid ul Azha with the assistance of non-profit organisations.

According to a statement issued by the Commissioner Office last month, a meeting was held at the office which was attended by representatives of various philanthropist organisations, including the Edhi Foundation, Chhipa Welfare Association, Saylani Welfare Trust, Al-Khidmat Foundation, Jamia Binoria Site and Daawat-e-Islami.
