KARACHI: Renowned religious scholars including Moulana Asad Deobandi and Mufti Shamim on Tuesday announced to lend their support to the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) in connection with NA-246 by-polls.
Addressing a press conference here at MQM’s headquarters, Ittehad-e-Bain-ul Muslimeen leader Mufti Shamim said Shia-Sunni clashes came to an end in Karachi since the formation of MQM, attributing its credit to the party chief Altaf Hussain.
“Jamat-e-Islami (JI) introduced the Jehadi culture and Imran Khan tried to stop the action against the Taliban”, he said, adding the PTI leader wants Karachi and not the Karachiites.
Mufti Shamim further said MQM was the only party to raise voice against the ‘murder’ of Tariq Mehboob.
On the occasion, MQM’s candidate for NA-246, Kanwar Naveed Jamil expressed his gratitude to the religious leaders for their announcement of support.
