Nothing but a direct threat and warning to MQM to brace itself...
Sharjeel Memon should have mentioned what revolutionary steps will be taken this time to restore peace in Karachi? PPP had been in federal and provincial government last for last five years, but they could not maintain law and order in the port city. Do they have some serious business to eradicate lawlessness? Or these are just the big claims, nothing practical?
Who is he kidding. The last 5 years have been the worst. I don't think any of these politicians care about the lives of innocent people in Karachi.
A peaceful area like Lyari.
Past performance of 5 years has been miserable. Yes peace in Karachi is needed may be time has come to really crack down without any prejudice
We need Governor Raj to fix the law and order situation in Karachi. And by the way, not the raj of this current Governor.
Seems Memon sahib has woken up after 5 years of slumbers. Who was responsible for the peace of Karachi during the past 5 years? I think the same Qaim Ali shah who is the CM again. Or ,may be, he has now found his magic wand in the junk of his backyard.
hahahaaaaa what a statement!!! definitely joke of the day
Joke of the century.
