MQM-P once again threatens to quit federal govt

Sindh governor Kamran Tessori and Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) convener Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui called on Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Islamabad on Tuesday and once again threatened to quit the coalition government while expressing reservations over the non-implementation of the political deal with the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP).

Sources said that Siddiqui and Tessori complained to the premier that if nothing was done in this regard then “there is no justification for us to be in the government”.

Both leaders said that if the incumbent government could not meet their demands, then the MQM-P would not be part of the coalition government.

The MQM-P leadership complained that the prime minister has made it difficult for the party to respond to the voters and the people.

The MQM-P leaders demanded the prime minister intervene in the matter and make the PPP implement the agreement.

On this, the premier reassured to resolve the issues and to implement the agreement with MQM-P.
