MQM Chief Altaf Hussain on Tuesday praised Senior Advisor to the Prime Minister on Interior Affairs, Rehman Malik for resigning from the Senate on the issue of the dual nationality. He said that Rehman Malik has raised the heads of over 1.5 million overseas Pakistanis with pride by resigning the Senate membership.
Talking to Rehman Malik on telephone Altaf Hussain said that the opposition parties were claiming that the bill on the dual nationality was being introduced in order to protect Malik. The resignation by Malik has thrown the opposition off balance, he added. He said that Rehman Malik had demonstrated by showing solidarity with the overseas Pakistanis, that the bill was actually introduced for giving the right to vote to Pakistanis living abroad. Rehman Malik thanked Altaf Hussain for the support given by the MQM in passing of the amended contempt of court bill by National Assembly.
