He said the Pakistan Peoples Party in connivance with the MQM had ruined the city. “Apparently, they oppose each other but they are all the same from within”, he added. The JI, he said, would release its election manifesto for the elections tomorrow.
Earlier, in a joint protest against the delimitation of constituencies outside the Election Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) office, the MQM-P convener Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui said there would be no election in the city if the MQM-P did not participate in the election. The MQM filed a petition in the Sindh High Court against the elections but the SHC turned down the petition.
