if PTI can't capitalize when mqm is not doing well, then perhaps you guys aren't all the hope and change that we were led to believe :D my point was that there was a time that mqm won in the posh areas of Karachi as well. They had operations done against them and they still swept the elections in those early days.

 

Anyway time for starting the fast.

 

PS Why am I seeing huma's avatar all over the thread?

MQM swept Karachi because it was fighting on ethnic lines and control of just one or two Cities. MQM could conquer Karachi through exploiting ethnic tensions and widening divides whereas PTI’s success is limited in Karachi because it can’t do any of that. Yet unlike MQM, due to this very reason PTI has a massive appeal and vote bank outside of Karachi. So they are on the right track.

I think PTI is generally confused and demoralised after NA-246 defeat when they taught Saulat Mirza’s confession, raid on 9-0 and truth behind Baldia Town factory would make a dent in MQM’s vote bank. But alas, you simply cannot underestimate the curse of ethnic xenophobia in parts of Karachi/Sindh.
