All elements opposing the local government system in Sindh are dictators and enemies of democracy, Muttahida Qaumi Movement chief Altaf Hussain said on Saturday. Addressing workers' meetings held in Karachi and across the country via telephone, Altaf Hussain also lashed out at the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) for supporting, what he termed, "separatist and nationalist" elements of Sindh, and said that such an act amounted to strengthening the hands of Pakistan's enemies.
Urging the people of Sindh to reject and boycott the September 13 strike called by "so-called nationalists", he pointed out that at a time when conspiracies were being hatched for instigating sectarian riots in the country and minorities, including Hindus, Christians and other non-Muslims, were being discriminated, the act of giving a call for strike by these elements amounted to creating chaos and unrest in Sindh.
Referring to the Rimsha case, Altaf Hussain called for her immediate release and urged the government to protect the life and property of Christians, Hindus, Sikhs, Parsis and other non-Muslims living in Pakistan. In this regard, MQM chief said that leader of a party, which had stolen the name of Quaid-i-Azam's Muslim League, wanted to be become 'Ameer-ul-Momineen', but his dream would never materialise.
He said that although PML-N's act of welcoming the 'Train March' of the "separatists and prejudiced elements" and supporting those who "are out to spread unrest in Sindh" were proofs that the party was conspiring against Pakistan. "MQM will never allow PML-N to succeed in its nefarious designs." Accusing the PML-N of usurping the rights of people living in Bhawalpur and southern Punjab "for a long time", Altaf Hussain assured the people of Bhawalpur and southern Punjab that MQM would continue its struggle for restoring their rights.
