At a press conference, PTI leader Syed Hafeezuddin addressing claimed that the MQM has overstated its mandate in Karachi. “If they believe in democracy, they would let the city be divided fairly, allowing true and real representation of the people,” he said, adding that PTI will not form an alliance with the MQM. PTI’s Nadir Khan Leghari said that the PTI had initiated a ‘Rabta Mohim’, through which their leaders will meet the masses door-to-door.

As history suggests, its MQM who never make pre-election alliance with any other party...So PTI their is no need for MQM to make alliance with you. Its always the other parties who come to MQM's door for alliance...May be in future Imran khan might come to 90, but MQM is not going anywhere for alliance...PTI should stop crying and accept the mandate of people of Karachi.
