Minorities are Pakistanis too: Altaf Hussain


Express June 11, 2010

KARACHI: Muttahida Qaumi Movement Chief Altaf Hussain stated that all minorities, regardless of religion, are Pakistanis and urged the public to unite against extremism in Pakistan.

Altaf Hussain was adressing party workers via telephone in cities across Pakistan on the 32nd Foundation day of All Pakistan Muttahida Students Organization (APMSO), on Friday.

He said that if the rulers of Pakistan would have followed the ideology of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Pakistan would not need to beg the world for donations, and alleged that politicians were looting the national exchequer.

Anwar Ahmad | 14 years ago | Reply Mr. Altaf Hussain has always spoken in favour of oppressed and discriminated. Unfortunately theocracy has led us to a point where we wear religion like clothes to hide our evil faces but are not ready to practice it in true sense. No religion allows any sort of discrimination but theocracy always does. Religious discrimination stared immediately after Pakistan came into being; the first step being adoption of Objective Resolution by Liaquat Ali Khan on behest of mullahs. In the very first clause people were deprived of their right to rule themselves hen in second clause it was assigned to few people in the name of Allah. Who is in better position o use the name of Allah to do all sorts of good or evil, one can easily judge. That's why Maulana Hasrat Mohani termed Objective Resolution as source of evil in one of his interviews.
Abdul Saboor Khan | 14 years ago | Reply Aoa, I totally support Altaf Hussain in all his good thoughts and missions specially if he can enforce 1973 Act in its true form and specially if he can help to finish all sanctions against ahmadies by Zial_haq second ammendment. Abdul Saboor Khan
