Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain said that the ‘political drone’ he had made an announcement about was ready to be launched, however it lacked some parts which will be arranged in a day or two, Express News reported.

The MQM chief had announced late Saturday that he would “carry out a political drone strike” within 72 hours, asking the nation to be mentally prepared for it — leaving many political observers guessing.

Political observers, however, take the timing of Altaf’s announcement seriously as it comes at a time when the MQM chief was bound to appear before the apex court today (Monday) in a contempt case.

Altaf had urged his party workers to prepare themselves for the strike and for its after effects.

The party statement released, though, did not elaborate on the nature of the attack, nor the intended target of the strike.

They produce leadership from the middle and lower middle classes - but this leadership move up the social ranks real fast. Go check where their MNAs, MPAs and Senators started from and where they are today. On the pretext of 'middle-class representation', they act the same way as every other party does.
