The Sindh Local Government (Amendment) Bill 2021 has already become law despite the fact that the governor had refused to give his assent to it.

All the opposition parties have already rejected the legislation terming it a 'black law' and geared up against it in a bid to pressure the ruling PPP to reverse it.
