“­National interest”, of course

We should be grateful to PML(Q) headed by Ch Shujaat for his decision to come back to the government, within 24 hours of their decision to resign from all ministries. The PML(Q), following the footsteps of MQM, has made the supreme sacrifice in national interest. As a token of their support for the unfortunate people of Pakistan, each MNA will get Rs 25 crore for development projects to be spent at their sole discretion. While the people of Pakistan suffer untold miseries, their elected representatives have opted to eat humble pie worth a meagre Rs 25 crore.
It would be in accordance with the spirit of sacrifice displayed by these two parties, that the people suffer without any complaints, miseries of the floods in Sindh, target killings and extortion in Karachi, the dengue epidemic in Punjab and other parts of country, electricity and gas outages, shortages of food and clean drinking water, no trains and massive unemployment. The people should seek forgiveness from the Almighty and pray that the call to prayers given by our president be heard. After all, sufferings of the poor would pale when compared with the humility and supreme sacrifices offered by these two political parties, all in the national interest.

  1. In the national interest C Shujaat and Altaf Hussain served as second fiddle and B team of Gen Musharraf. It was again the national interest which forced Moonis Elahi to pilfer NICL and for MQM thugs to kill thousands in target killings, indulge in extortion and than illegally transfer them to UK for their pir.
