A delegation of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) held a meeting with a Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) delegation in Dubai on Friday.

The PPP delegation was led by Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari and comprised of Faryal Talpur and Rehman Malik. The MQM was represented by Sindh Governor Dr Ishratul Ebad, Khalid Maqbool, Babar Ghauri and Nadeem Nusrat.

Ghuari said there was no agenda for this meeting and only general discussions were held.

As the leaders met in Dubai, conflicting reports emerged over a decision of the MQM regarding joining the Sindh government.

Contradicting earlier media reports, an MQM spokesman said the party had made no decision regarding joining the Sindh government, adding that the meeting with the PPP was part of the political and democratic process.

“There is no truth in media reports regarding a decision to join the provincial government,” the spokesman said.

Earlier media reports said the MQM had declined an invitation to the join the provincial government.

Sindh Information Minister Sharjeel Memon denied this claim and said the PPP had not extended any invitation to the MQM of joining the provincial government. “The meeting is being held on the request of the MQM. No invitation to join the provincial government has been made.”

Prior to the meeting in Dubai, sources said the PPP would invite the MQM to join the Sindh government.

  1. MQM & PPP wants to start the Topi Drama with the same cast they played for 5 years fooling the common public with new dirty tricks.

  2. They (MQM) are already in Government, because Ibad is Governor of Sindh since over a decade . this proves that MQM are part of Government for all these yeras.

  3. Dr Isharatul Ibad ,the governor of Sindh is considered a refined person with saner thought.He made him self acceptable for all community ,that is why he survival is continued.He is direct representative of federal Govt.
