KARACHI: Within than a week’s time, a fourth lawmaker belonging to the Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM) quit his party and joined the Mustafa Kamal-led Pak Sarzameen Party, reportedly on Sunday.
MNA Waseem Hussain, who was elected from a Hyderabad constituency (NA-220), told a press conference here at the PSP headquarters that he parted ways with the MQM-P since all its leaders were rebellious against one other to get control of the party for their own motive.
Accompanied by PSP President Anis Kaimkhani, he said he decided to work from the platform of the PSP, as it was the only party which was genuinely working for the welfare of the people of Karachi and the nation.
Before Mr Hussain, three women lawmakers of the MQM-P — MPAs Naila Munir and Naheed Begum, and MNA Dr Fauzia Hameed — have joined the PSP because of resentment and power struggle within the MQM.
Moreover, Mr Kaimkhani invited Dr Farooq Sattar and Dr Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui — the head of the PIB and Bahadurabad groups of the MQM-Pakistan — to join the PSP and mutually work for the betterment of Karachi as well as Sindh.
He stated that the PSP would develop as the “biggest and the strongest” party of Sindh in the upcoming general election and the next chief minister is likely to be from his very own party.
He also criticized the K-Electric for carrying out unscheduled load-shedding in ‘the city of lights’.
