‘MQM not calling for dividing Sindh; wants administrative units’
KARACHI: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) is not aiming at the division of Sindh, however it wanted administrative units in the province.
Addressing MQM general workers meeting from London chief of the party Altaf Hussain said, “Building of four rooms in a house does not mean the division of the house and moreover the split of brothers does not mean the division of their mother,” he said.
Hussain said MQM doors remained opened for Sindhis and he asked Sindhis to join the party. MQM is the party of peasants and poor masses. And it is not a party of landlords and feudal lords but the party of labours, he added.
In Karachi, there is a season of political gatherings and it would be seen after Eid-ul-Azha-‘who is coming and who is going,’ Hussain said.
He strictly warned his party workers against collecting hides of sacrificial animals by force this Eid-ul-Azha. If any of the party workers were found guilty he would be kicked out from the rank and file of MQM, Hussain warned.
On the occasion members for various party posts in the country were announced. Rabita Committee member Mian Atiq was named President Punjab, Barrister Muhammad Ali Saif was announced President for Federally Administrated Tribal Areas and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Ghazi Salahuddin was chosen as coordinator for MQM Coordination Committee.
