PSP says MQM failed to resolve Karachi’s issues
Pak Sarzameen Party Chairman Syed Mustafa Kamal on Monday said that despite continuous elections in Pakistan during the last seven decades, condition of Pakistan and its economic engine - Karachi has become worst.
The Muttahida Qaumi Movement of the past and the present ruled the city for deacades, but failed to resolve the issues of the metropolis, rather gave it ethnic strife and bloodshed, he said at a PSP rally that went from Korangi Crossing to Chiragh Hotel in Landhi in a show of force for the upcoming by-election for the NA-240 seat.
Lambasting MQM for ruining Karachi, Kamal said, the grim situation compelled the Chief Justice of Pakistan and Chief of Army Staff to take action to clean the garbage and drains of Karachi city which has been ruled by MNAs, MPAs and the mayor elected by the votes of the muhajirs, the people who migrated and settled in the urban areas of Sindh at the time of the partition of the sub-continent.
However, the muhajir politics only filled the graveyards with the coffins of muhajir youth, and many were forced spend their entire lives in prisons. The forty year politics of MQM has turned sophisticated urbanite Urdu-speaking Muhajirs into agents of RAW.
"MQM has repeatedly sold my nation for its ministries, corruption and contracts."
