Altaf Hussain congratulates PTI for Karachi rally
Hussain also says Khan should have presented his party’s manifesto rather than indulging in “politics of blame”.
Muttahida Qaumi Movement chief (MQM) Altaf Hussain congratulated Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s leader Imran Khan and his party members on carrying out a successful rally in Karachi, Express News reported on Monday.
In a notification released by MQM, Hussain said in a statement that it would have been better had Khan presented his party’s manifesto in the rally rather than indulging himself in “politics of blame” and alleging that other parties are corrupt.
Hussain said that such a move was required in order to channelise positivity in the current political situation.
Khan held a rally in Karachi earlier on Sunday at the Quaid’s Mausoleum.
There was no official figure available as of the time of filing this report. PTI Sindh claimed that up to 450,000 people had attended, “given that the ground had a capacity of 250,000 and that the surrounding roads and the Mazar-e-Quaid ground itself was packed.” A police officer deputed at the rally said his personal estimate was 300,000 including the people on the roads and in the mausoleum.
