All other departments, sectors, units and committees will maintain their status quo.
The decision was made following observations and recommendations made by public and party workers during a general workers meeting held at party’s head-quarters at 90 in Karachi.
Altaf simultaneously appealed to all those senior party workers who have been inactive for a while to rejoin the party for the sake of party’s cause.
Another general workers’ meeting has been scheduled for Saturday when other decisions will also be taken.

@Shah: wishful thinking
The Only solution of these Problems is to Ban MQM :)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/may/21/karachi-altaf-hussain-mqm-pakistan? Leaked diplomatic cables, meanwhile, show the US was impressed with the MQM's municipal record after it won control of Karachi city council in 2005. Its young mayor improved tax collection rates, built roads and devised water schemes in an overcrowded metropolis and port city of 16 million people. "The MQM based in Karachi appears to be transforming itself from a group of thugs to a service-based, grassroots political party," one diplomat wrote in 2008.
This was very much expected after the Karachi Raabita Committee was thrashed by the workers of MQM, day before yesterday at 04:00 hrs in the morning while Mr. Altaf Hussain was addressing the workers at 90.
The Karachi Raabta Committee should be given a break, as people now want to see new faces.
What MQM is lacking is that it does not have very many people who can handle the situation of Karachi and at the same time face the media in view of the recent political development and changes that are coming in Karachi.
PTI have given a tough time to MQM in 2013 election and by the time next general election will be held, it will be all over PTI in Karachi, Hyderabad and Sukkur and not the MQM.
Not enough Pir sahab. The actual culprits are still there. you need to do more.
Waow. Didn't see this coming.
MQM needs to massively re-work on their discipline or soon their organisation will become non existence.
MQM is the best!
He should overhaul his media team as well. They did worst job immediately after the elections!
It is time that MQM addresses the root cause of all these problems and that is Mr. AH himself. He should be "retired" as he and his speeches have become a liability and whatever goodwill and political capital that MQM has earned in the past 25 years is being eroded by their own leader's irresponsible comments and behavior. I am sure that MQM has many young dynamic workers who can very well take control of the situation and lead the party much better than how it is being led from London.
