Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) Chief Altaf Hussain Tuesday condemned the withdrawal of Dr Tahirul Qadri’s security by the Punjab government and said the provincial government was greatly disturbed by the wave of change sweeping across the length and breadth of the province.
An MQM statement issued from London Secretariat quoted Altaf as telling Hassan Nisar, a renowned columnist, in a telephonic conversation.
Answering a question about the support extended by MQM to Dr Qadri, Altaf said a revolution had become the fate of the country and oppressed and deprived people of the country could no longer be stopped from making a struggle to change their fate by bringing an end to the out-dated political system of the country.
He said the Punjab government was nervous. “Propaganda was launched in Punjab in order to stop people from coming towards MQM. But the fate has created such circumstances that a powerful voice for changing the decaying political system has risen from the Punjab itself.”
“People from Karachi to Khyber want a revolution in the country. The journey has started now and it can never be stopped.”
He said the writers and intellectuals having wish for a real change and an end to the feudal system should support this revolutionary struggle through their pen.
Punjab govt hurdle in ‘change’, says Altaf
