MQM's revolution is peaceful: Farooq Sattar

Published Updated

 LAHORE: Mutahidda Qaumi Movement (MQM) is adhering to a peaceful revolution which will be realized through ballot.

The MQM Deputy Convenor and MNA Dr. Farooq Sattar stated this, while talking to media at a reception hosted by LPG Distributers Association President Irfan Khokhar here Wednesday.

Dr. Sattar said the MQM's arrival in Punjab had laid the foundation of this revolution, adding, if any one tried to obstruct the Mutahidda's vital initiative, the masses would bring a revolution bigger than even that of the Egypt and Tunis.

To a question, he said, MQM was striving hard to hold its April 10 public meeting in Iqbal Park (Minar-e-Pakistan), adding, we had inoculated a 'vitamin injection' to the Punjab government in this regard and would continue the dialogue process in future as well.

To another question, Dr. Sattar said that at present the MQM had only 25 members in the National Assembly and when this figure would scale up to 200, the people of Pakistan would be experiencing a better change every day.

The MQM parliamentarian said that bigger landlords and feudals must be brought into tax net to ensure progress of the country and prosperity of the masses. Provision of jobs to unemployed youth and minority community were very much part of the MQM manifesto, he responded to a reporter's query.

To a query, Dr. Farooq Sattar said that if Mutahidda was found involved in the target killings in Karachi, it must be treated as criminal.
