Fishy business

January 21, 2020

This letter refers to the news story 'MQM refuses to join federal cabinet'(Jan 19, 2020). There are various speculations in the air on the sudden yet unanimous change in tone of the allied parties. Normally the differences and grievances take some time to crystallize.

No one knows what kinds of ‘incentives’ are being offered by the supposed handlers, if any. The tough stand taken by the allies and the muted reaction of the PTI seems rather suspicious.
