PSP chief visits Korangi, Landhi in bid to wean voters from MQM

Karachi 

Amid a competition for winning over supporters of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, Paksarzmeen Pakistan Party founder Syed Mustafa Kamal visited Korangi and Landhi and asked the people not to vote for the “traitor”.

He also invited the Mohajir Qaumi Movement-Haqiqi, led by Afaq Ahmed, to join his party which he had announced in March this year after returning from Dubai. 

Kamal, who is also a former Karachi mayor, told rallies, one in Korangi and another in Landhi, that when he used to attend MQM Rabita Committee meetings, issues of the people, incnlding providing education and justice, were never discussed. He further stated that “people here do no leave the post of even a councillor, but after he became a Rabita Committee member and a senator he left all those posts just to serve my people without any discrimination”.

The PSP leader, who has been joined by several legislators from the MQM, said he had come to the areas to ask the people to promise that they would never give their votes “to a person who has ruined the lives of the people of Karachi and Hyderabad and is living in London”.

“Unfortunately, we have been following a person who has taken the lives of thousands of people and snatched their sons.” He said Karachi used to be called a civilised city and people came there for jobs, but “today people of this city go abroad for employment”.

Kamal lamented that Karachi had become a garbage den and there was no basic civic facility there. He asked the residents of Korangi and Landhi to shun all their differences and work for the development of the country.
