"MQM's Rabita Committee incharge Kaiful Wara, Abdul Haseeb and Arif Khan will remain members of the committee," a statement posted on MQM's website said.

The statement quoting Altaf Hussain requested members of the Rabita Committee to refrain from visiting party headquarters, Nine Zero. Further, it said, "A decision regarding Rabita Committee in London will be made within the next two days."

"Senior leaders of the party should submit proposals to the party headquarters today for reconstitution of the committee," the MQM chief added.

According to sources, most of the anger was directed at the Rabita Committee for not working effectively and not responding to the ongoing situation faced by the party. Altaf was also angry because of the change in the date of an event, which the party was supposed to hold.

Abdul Rahman Khan | 8 years ago | Reply I bet if all national media, both print and electronic, decide not to print and televise anything about Altaf Husain and MQM, both of them will die. Altaf Husain is publicity-hungry. I hope and pray he keeps his word to go on hunger strike unto his death.
