The 54-year-old Murad is an alumni of the prestigious Stanford University where he received MSc degrees in economic systems and civil structure engineering. In 1986 he gained a BE Civil Engineering degree from NED University.

Murad hails from Jamshoro. From 1986 till 1990 he served as an engineer at WAPDA, port Qasim Authority and Hyderabad Development Authority.

His father, Syed Abdullah Shah was Sindh Chief Minister from 1993 till 1996 in Benazir Bhutto’s government.

Murad Ali Shah started his political career in 2002 and got elected as a Member of Sindh Assembly. In 2008, after being selected an MPA from Jamshoro, he served as finance minister in Sindh government.

However the 2013 election campaign did not bring glad tidings for Murad, as his dual citizenship became a hurdle in his participation. Sacrificing his other nationality, he partook in the general elections and once again became finance minister in the Sindh cabinet.
