Twitter Alert: Apprehensions aplenty as MQM exits government

Rumours of Feisal Raza Abidi being nominated for governor and Zulfiqar Mirza for chief minister seat.

As MQM parted ways with the ruling PPP for the umpteenth time, Pakistani twitterati vented their apprehensions of increased violence and political instability in Karachi following this latest political maneouver.



With the MQM out of govt, will Karachi be even more unstable, violent? I doubt it.



@Mehmal yup. Received called from all the big talk shows. Kashmir polls scrapped - new topic Karachi!





Faisal Raza Abidi & Zulfiqar Mirza names being considered for Governor & CM SINDH positions




Me 2 baby sis: "MQM quit govt.Ishrat-ul-Ibad stepped down as Gov. Things will get crazy, don't go out" She: "But I wanna go out for coffee!!!"



MQM has done this twice since January - threatened to separate from the government.




+1000 RT @hafsaq: @Razarumi true. As much as I dislike MQM tatics, better have the on board, rather than subject Karachi to political instability



MQM's grievances are justified. But let’s hope we’re no heading towards another test-tube ‘opposition alliance.’



As much as I fear MQM them being in the government was the protection for Karachi - out of govt - RUN now its not only ANP but MQM too



I really hope I am wrong here but this political divorce might lead to a violent clash between ANP and MQM, both parties have been warming up



@abbasnasir59 I don't think MQM omission from government would affect any situation in Karachi



Politicians are people who, when they see light at the end of the tunnel, go out and buy some more tunnel. quote pakistan PPP MQM ANP
