Endgame begins for government: MQM Founder Altaf Hussain
KARACHI: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) leader Altaf Hussain today called for annulment of Azad Jammu and Kashmirs elections for Legislative Assembly.
His demand came a day after Muzaffarabad High Court (MHC) postponed elections in constituencies of Karachi for Kashmir election, citing security reasons.
MQM reacted angrily to the postponement and immediately boycotted the election.
In a telephone address from London, MQM chief Hussain said that PPP would not have been able to survive if the MQM had not extended its support.
The present government is worse than a dictatorship, he said.
Hussain said that the MQM had stood by the PPP government in every difficult phase.
MQM, he said, is the third largest part in Kashmir, adding that MQM would have secured several seats in these elections.
He also called upon Chief Justice of Pakistan to take notice of governments maneuvering in AJK elections.
He also announced to observe June 26 as Day of Condemnation every year.
The MQM chief called for annulment of elections in Azad Kashmir.
He said that attempts to eliminate MQMs ideology through state operation would never succeed.
Has the government arrested killers of Benazir Bhutto, he questioned?
