KARACHI
Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) held a rally in Karachi on Sunday to show solidarity with the Pakistan Army, rangers and police who are fighting Taliban militants.
MQM chief Altaf Hussain on Sunday said the Taliban were being used to destabilise Pakistan.
Addressing a solidarity rally, he added that four years ago his statements about the Taliban were not taken seriously, but now he has been proven right.
The MQM chief added that Pakistan’s peace and security were under threat and measures should be taken to safeguard the stability and security of the nation.
He said the supporters of Taliban are hypocrites. He said the supporters of Taliban are not friends of Pakistan. He said the government, army and the people have to be on the same page to fight extremism. He said if we are strong internally we can overcome the external threats.
The rally took place at Shahra-e-Quaideen, where a huge crowd of men, women and children had gathered.
MQM leaders Faisal Sabzwari, Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui and Haider Abbas Rizvi addressed the rally earlier.
“This is not a procession of a misguided few, this is a procession of those who have woken up to the situation,” Sabzwari said.
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PMLN)’s Nihal Hashmi also addressed the procession.
RANGERS, POLICE LAUD MQM’S SOLIDARITY RALLY:
Terming it a morale-booster, Sindh Rangers and police threw their weight behind the MQM rally staged to show solidarity with security forces.
“We hold this endeavour in high regard as it will go a long, long way in boosting the ‘esprit de corps’ of Pakistan’s sentinels,” a Rangers spokesman said.
Praying for the steadfastness of Pakistan’s security forces in the war on terror, he also saluted the MQM Coordination Committee for organising and the participants for making the rally a huge success.
Meanwhile, a statement issued by the Sindh Police also praised the rally.
“We express our deepest gratitude to all those who showed up at MQM’s rally to express solidarity with security and law enforcement agencies fighting the scourge of terrorism,” the statement said.
The statement also read that the Sindh Police would never flinch back from laying down their lives to defeat terrorism.
“It is our solemn pledge that this war will reach its logical end with success, come what may,” a police spokesman added.
Altaf a traitor and enemy of Pakistan and even worst enemy of Armed forces of Pakistan. One can call him "Ghaddar-E-Azam"
