MQM founder and leader Altaf Hussain has categorically claimed that “a consensus opinion is emerging from the people living in urban areas of Sindh that the creation of new province was absolutely necessary for the resolutions of issues”.
“People say that the creation of a new province, whether it is called Karachi Province, Urban Province, Sindh One or Sindh Two, has become their destiny”, stated Altaf Hussain while talking to the MQM Co-ordination Committee in London and Pakistan according to a statement issued by the party.
He said, “People of urban Sindh, who have been ignored and discriminated against by successive Sindh Governments for the past 67 years, are saying that they should have a separate province”.
Hussain added that “the people of Urban Sindh have now decided that they will not hesitate from offering any sacrifice in order to get their province”.
