Pakistan Peoples Party's Leader Taj Haider has said that the decision of Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) to back Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in the federal government is unfortunate.
Free and fair elections are a prerequisite for stabilization and strengthening of democracy. At the moment the most crucial issue before the nation is to expose and undo the historic rigging in general election 2018. Support to a party that has been the main beneficiary and part and parcel of this crime is tantamount to stabbing democracy in the back for very petty gains. This is a time when all those who believe in democracy should join hands irrespective of their mutual differences, said a press release issued here on Thursday.
He said that opposition benches in any assembly have a major role to play. The Pakistan Peoples Party believes that on all major issues the best solutions are those that are taken after serious consultation and building consensus with opposition and that is the policy its provincial government in Sindh would be following.-PR
