He said that all political powers will have to think about the political and economic betterment of the country, otherwise, the country would face severe consequences.

Regarding MQM factions, Farooq Sattar said that he has given a blank cheque to MQM-P convener Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui and Sindh governor Kamran Tessori. “I am continuously asking everyone to be united. However, those persons will be questioned who are creating hurdles in this unity.”

Sattar claimed that all factions of the MQM can defeat the ‘boycott call’ by showing unity.

He admitted that he and Pak-Sarzameen Party (PPP) leaders made mistakes. He added that they have to seek apology from the nation and they can defeat the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) easily by unity.
