      <title>MQM-P calls meeting to decide split from government</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330407828/mqm-p-calls-meeting-to-decide-split-from-government</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Pakistan, a key coalition partner in the government, has convened an important meeting of its Rabita Committee to discuss its future in the ruling alliance.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The meeting will focus on whether the party should function independently or join the opposition benches in the National Assembly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Speaking to the media in Parliament on Wednesday, MQM-P leader Aminul Haque confirmed the meeting, stating, “We have called a Rabita Committee session to deliberate on whether to remain independent or formally sit with the opposition.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Haque expressed disappointment over unfulfilled commitments made to MQM-P by the Shehbaz Sharif-led government.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;“We wanted Shehbaz Sharif to become Prime Minister, but the promises made to MQM-P were not honoured. The Sindh and Hyderabad development packages, which were assured by the government, have seen no progress in the last one and a half years,” he stated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Expressing dissatisfaction with the federal government and the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), Haque criticised the lack of visible development work in Karachi and Hyderabad.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He reiterated that the party’s meeting would determine whether to withdraw from the coalition and move to the opposition benches.&lt;/p&gt;
