KARACHI: Federal Minister Rehman Malik has said that MQM always
stood shoulder to shoulder with PPP in every hard time and if they have
any apprehension, it may be resolved on negotiation table.
He
was talking to the journalists at Karachi here on Monday. He said that
the government would not allow anybody to destroy the peace of Karachi
and those elements which are involved in subversive activities would be
dealt with iron hands no matter from which political party they belong.
He said that the telephones of Nine-Zero were disconnected due
to some technical fault. PTCL is a private organization and the
government had nothing to do with the issue. If MQM wants to
investigate the matter, they can send their engineer.
“Government
would never use any jarring tactics . MQM and PPP remained good friends
in the past and unity among both parties is imperative for restoration
of peace in Karachi. Our doors are still open for them. Muttahida
should resolve all the issue through dialogue process”, Interior
minister added.
He said that heart of every Pakistani is
weeping over the circumstances of Qasba Colony and Katti Pahari , where
even mosques were also demolished. He said that 500 personnel of FC
have been directed to take stern action against the miscreants. The
people and media should also cooperate with the law enforcing agencies
in curbing troublemakers
Responding a question about threat
given by Zulfiqar Mirza to a journalist , Rehman Malik said that every
one should respect each other . However some elements of media are also
adding fuel to fire. Online
