Farooq Sattar-led Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM-P) already marred with “internal strife” and dissensions faces another setback, as Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) leader Mustafa Kamal on Friday announced that former MQM-P lawmaker Salman Mujahid Baloch would be joining his party.
Mujahid was expelled from the MQM-P in October for violating the party discipline after he divulged information on the party’s internal rifts, stating that there existed two separate groups within the MQM-P.
Salman Mujahid Baloch had told a private news channel that Dr Sattar and Aamir Khan were heading their separate groups within the party.
The Aamir Khan group consists of Faisal Sabzwari, Khwaja Izhar, and others; while Kamran Tessori, Kanwar Naveed Jameel, and Khwaja Sohail Mansoor were in Dr Sattar’s faction, he had said following his expulsion from the party.
