Mustafa Kamal pulls another MQM MPA to his party

Kamal welcomed Sindh Tanzeemi Committee members and other associates of Mangi into his party.

Addressing the media here, Mangi said he had joined MQM around 14 years ago when MQM chief Altaf Hussain had spoken of uniting people.

He also announced to resign as MPA from PS-127 constituency.

He recalled that Urdu speakings and Sindhi people had rifts during those years. He, however, said the things  didnt work out despite MQM chief’s promises.

“We are not here to blame anyone. If Sindh gets strengthened, the whole of Pakistan will benefit from him,” he added.

He underlined that Sindh people were shocked to listen Mustafa Kamal’s first press conference after return to the country. Mangi apologised for failing to serve people of Malir from where he was elected MPA.

In his talk, Kamal reiterated that he had arrived in the city to prevent people from being killed and becoming criminals.
