  1. Straight from the horse’s mouth: “Do not misuse the power of the state to usurp the MQM’s vote bank.” The statement implies that the MQM will go all the way, including resorting to violence, just to protect its “vote bank,” regardless of how many people are killed. This just goes to show that the violence in Karachi is mainly rooted in the desire of so-called political parties, including that one which has the habit of joining, leaving, and rejoining the government, to control territories and resources in Sindh. These so-called parties use brainwashed party workers, who apparently are oblivious to the real political and economic issues of the day, as foot soldiers, along with hired goons and panoply of mafia-like gangs. The proposal to table a de-weaponization bill at the Provincial Assembly in itself is laudable. Operation in the Karachi is not a joke there are 2.5 corer people living in the Karachi and its a business hub so to clean the Karachi through the army operation will be the fool decision.
