KARACHI:
Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain dissolved the party’s Karachi Tanzeemi Committee on Tuesday night, following complaints received from his workers regarding the committee’s inefficiency.
Addressing an important meeting held at the Lal Qila ground, Altaf announced that he was dissolving the committee currently headed by Hammad Siddiqui.
Journalists were not allowed to cover the meeting, and party activists present at the meeting were told not to bring their cell phones.
Workers from all the units and sectors, along with members of other organisational wings and committees attended the meeting.
It was announced that office bearers of the Tanzeemi Committee would not be able to enjoy posts for more than three years.
At the meeting workers expressed their dissatisfaction with the functioning of the Tanzeemi Committee.
The move to dissolve the committee comes days after a incident took place at the MQM headquarters of Nine Zero early Sunday morning, when workers of the party manhandled not only members of the MQM’s Coordination Committee but journalists as well. This action of the workers followed Altaf Hussain’s criticism of the MQM’s Coordination Committee.
Following the incident, Altaf directed his party workers to tender apologies to members of the Coordination Commitee.
Other major decisions regarding the party set-up are expected to be announced at another worker’s meeting on Saturday.
Altaf appealed to inactive senior workers to return to the party and asked them to help MQM leaders take the party’s movement forward.
