      <title>Lawyers’ protest in Khairpur against canals project enters fourth day</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330412981/lawyers-protest-in-khairpur-against-canals-project-enters-fourth-day</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Public opposition to the decision to construct new canals in Sindh has escalated significantly. A lawyer’s protest near the Babarloi Bypass in Khairpur has entered its fourth day, effectively paralyzing inter-provincial trade across the country.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ongoing protest has resulted in thousands of vehicles, including trucks, freight carriers, and livestock transport, becoming stranded on the National Highway.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Many drivers have turned back due to concerns about millions of rupees worth of goods spoiling.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Reports showed that looting incidents are occurring among the stranded vehicles, which are isolated from populated areas.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Additionally, fears of livestock fatalities have further complicated the situation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Protests and demonstrations continue in several cities, including Sukkur, Naushahro Feroze, Khairpur, Ghotki, and Daharki.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In Daharki, protesters have stopped the supply of goods to other provinces.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Protesters have issued a 72-hour ultimatum to the federal government, warning that if their demands are not met, they will escalate their actions once the deadline expires.&lt;/p&gt;
