The chief of Muttahida Qaumi Movement Altaf Hussain has said that his philosophy of "Realism and Practicalism" is a criterion on which every ideology and manifesto can be validated. This philosophy not only indicates the evils plaguing a system and social maladies but also points out practical steps needed for remedying the problems.
This he said while giving a lecture to the Co-ordination Committee in Pakistan and London and different sections of the party on the topic of "Realism and Practicalism".
He said, "Realism is recognising the public issues, problems in the system and social evils as they exist while Practicalism is making practical efforts for solving these problems and eliminating the social evils present in the society".
"We often talk about the problems in the system of the country, deplorable condition of poor people, and the differences and discords in the society but we do not make any efforts to solve the problems and eliminate these evils", Altaf Hussain said adding "problems cannot be solved by taking recourse to Realism alone as Realism is useless without the aid of Practicalism".
