Re: MQM once again leaving government
I hope there could be some compromise. I really think that PPP federal government is doing good on terrorism front, and so I hope to see the government continue. Hate to see Imran or PMLN in Islamabad.
But the problem is PPP Sindh. I read today that PPP Sindh wants Zulfiqar Mirza to be the new chief minister replacing Qaim Ali Shah. Now regardless of whether one likes or dislikes Mirza, it is very well known how much he hates MQM’s guts. So it is very obvious why his name is being presented for CM post.
It is only to tighten noose around MQM’s neck, and by extension, around the neck of Karachi/Urdu-speaking.
I am afraid that PPP Sindh is going to cause more trouble in Karachi. There have also been suggestions to include Saddar Town (financial hub of Karachi) in Lyari (PPP stronghold).
The omens are bad.
