Prayer
People are the best
judge. People have been voting in favour of the MQM since 1987. Such propaganda
is not new - Mandela and Yasser Arafat were termed as terrorists once. Now
these leaders are winning Nobel prizes. Those who struggle against obsolete
medieval unjust systems there are always termed as terrorists by brute forces.
I strongly deny any involvement of the MQM in any sort of violence. MQM
believes in democracy and is against all sorts of violent terrorism.....
